I think if you really need the capacity, it sounds good.
The price is good, but I'd wait for format standards to come out.
The beauty of the CD (R) is that it is so prevalent, even though storage/
speed might not be so good, it is sure to be around (or at least be able
to find some readers ) in the forseeable future. This 5.2GB R/W removable
media is awfully tempting though ....

My preferance is isopropanol. It requires a little elbow grease,
but it cleans the keys nicely, and I don't have to worry (too much...)
about a little of it getting inside. Just don't mistake the acetone
bottle for isopropanol :-) (meltdown!)
