Never Fill a Digital Camera Memory Card Again

**MIG-31** · Oct 22, 2004, 11:59 AM

Epson's new P-2000 stores up to 40GB of photos straight from your camera's memory card.

Epson's new P-2000 Multimedia Storage Viewer features a 40GB hard drive that you can use to store images from memory cards. That means you don't have to worry about running out of card space or carrying a notebook along--just insert the memory card into the P-2000, transfer the images, clear the card, and start shooting again.

Each of the two built-in memory card slots supports CompactFlash Type I and Type II and Secure Digital memory cards--an optional third-party adapter supports additional cards. The P-2000 has a 3.8-inch display for viewing JPEG images. Its 40GB capacity is enough to store about 5000 RAW-format images and up to 10,000 5-megapixel JPEG images, according to Seiko Epson representatives.

The P-2000 displays images up to 8.9 megapixels and supports JPEG and RAW image file formats, MPEG-4 and Motion-JPEG video files, and MP3 and unprotected AAC audio files. It connects to Macs or PCs using a USB 2.0 interface. It's powered by a lithium ion battery and includes a charger/AC adapter, a high-speed USB cable, a carrying case, and a wrist strap. Look for it in stores in early November for $499.

At $500 a pop I can't see this being very popular except maybe with the pros.

When I was in Thailand I just went to a local cyber cafe and dumped my pictures onto a CD-ROM. Much cheaper.
