A city sues a single person to prevent him/her from linking to a public website, but keeps silent when a Telco sues it for providing free internet...
Guess cities are bullies like corporates.
Pick on the small guy.
I dearly, dearly hope the defendant not only prevails, but also countersues the City Mayor for Fraud, deliberate attempt to subvert justice, manslaughter (what the heck, file anyway), and personally report him to the FBI for corruption.
Counter Attack is the best form of defence.
Sheboygan was sued by a Telco for providing free unternet?

SD cards fit any device that uses a compact flash card with a relatively cheap adaptor plus the ever growing sd card format.
In the world of digital storage the compact flash card is a main frame in a world of laptops.
labels on the card tout 802.11g 54mbps, this is 6.75 MB/second (if my conversion is correct). or about a picture a second uncompressed, four or five with jpeg compression
I am guessing at real world speeds of about half that (i have no idea).
This is pretty awesome for a first generation wi-fi card that will revolutionize, yes REVO not EVO, picture sharing.
Remember Wi-Fi, "who would ever need that , it's stupid, I can plug in my laptop without buying a stupid card for $70"
100gb hard drives "I will never fill my 40gb drive, that's crazy"
$100 bucks for wireless uploading and sharing from nearly any camera, this could be huge.
For most users, this card will last beyond the life of the camera and likely the next camera.
I know the cell phone is expected to fill this role, but, with a transmission "tax" and for the foreseeable future, crappy pictures regardless of pixel count.
Potential problems: unit is battery sucking pig, real world transfer speeds suck, problems getting it to work with wi-fi hot spots.
Or some weird legislation that I can only imagine at this time.
