IBM Says Polymer Memory Could Be Ready By 2005

Posted by timothy on from the my-brain-awaits-an-upgrade dept.

prostoalex writes "Polymer memory is hardly anything new, and we already had HP and Princeton announcing their prototype. In a Forbes magazine article IBM promises polymer memory that's five times cheaper than current flash memory, and expects the first devices with polymer data storage systems to be delivered possibly by 2005. IBM's Zurich Lab published this article last year with description of Millipede."

    I'l believe this when it's in my digital camera.
