- In the Feb. issue of Popular Science mag on pg 29, there is an article on
- the MD and the competition between Sony, Sanyo, Sharp, Mitsubishi and others
- to put out the smallest MD. So far, the article describes the smallest one
- so far (prototype) is made by Mitsubishi measuring .75"x3"x4.5" and weiging
- only 7 oz. a heck-uv-a-lot smaller than the current sony models.
-
- also, right next to the article on the MD, there is an interesting article
- about 20bit super bit mapping.
