The technology is very cool, but not quite cool enough to make up for the removal of a couple of the primary reason for purchasing a digital camera.
A digital camera is nice because you do not need to continually purchase film and the storage of photos can be made much easier. These qualities give the photographer the ability to take as many photos as they want, keeping only the good ones.
The CD-R is spent film. You would need to keep track of shot counts. Your "film" now contains a whole bucnh of pictures you most likely don't care to keep around (at least if your as much as a novice photographer as I am), and you must carry around extra disks. This is not the end of the world, but I would also get frustrated over the extra steps/cost of archiving only the pictures I want...I would need to choose the good ones and transfer them to the archival CD-R(W)/DVD-RAM/etc...
Make it Mini-Disk to be compatible with their new video camera...or CD-RW, and this might be a lot better IMHO.
The technology sounds like it could have merit, but it seems as though it wouldn't take much to make this distributed bot network into a DDOS itself.
If suspicious activity is planned smartly, couldn't the bots create so much internal chatter trying to figure out "what's going on" that they themselves create a DOS effect on the network?

Well, it "seems" pretty straight-forward.
The 500 MHz is a single-speed chip; therefore it cannot drop it's speed to conserve power.
The 600 MHz has the SpeedStep technology, letting it drop its power consumption for an "average" of 1 Watt.
