Sounds like a bad plan. Phones get bumped a bashed around way too much. Solid state is better for phones.

How would you even connect that? it is obviously to small for IDE and even to small for Serial ata
or are these just for portable devices so they can somehow be lodged/mounted into the device?

also, how much would this drive cost you? B)

whatever it is, i'm sure it's a waste as you can buy a 4.7gb dvd-rw undoubtedly cheaper
and a DVD-rw drive would be a better investment anyway

i was thinking of the cost because if they put those into phones, phones could become very expensive.

to big do they come any smaller?

The mini ipods use something like this don't they?

Non-sport MP3 players maybe.

Maybe some small device you plug into a TV, it could rip movies in DivX. Hey, that'd be cool... no big clunky wires to a TV card and crap like that.
