also @ TechSpot: Intel says Haswell will improve battery life by 50 percent
Obviously current data densities can't reach the ceiling of CompactFlash 5.0, but there are other new features to get excited about. The CFA says Revision 5.0 brings an optional quality of service framework that guarantees a certain level of performance and prevents dropping frames, more efficient cleanup of unused space, a new electrical design that better complies with ATA standards, and updated ATA references to ATA-6 and ATA-8/ACS-2.
There's no mention of when CompactFlash 5.0 cards will ship, but interested parties can learn more about the revision here (PDF), or download the specification for $100.

I didn't even know a petabyte existed! It would take nearly 3 years to fill it using a CF duplicator

how about Santa Claus is all up in your grille all up in here?You of course meant to say, "Skynet Clause"..
"Skynet Clause bees up in Yo Greel" That works.
OK, some fine tuning.
"Skynew Claws, nose bees up in Yo a**"!

"Snizzle Claws, all up in yo kool-aid, and he don't even know what flava it is."
