Hows it going everyone, again im faced with anyother equiptment decesion =)

Im looking for storage options. Im currently using my IBM Thinkpad T40 and TWO 1 gig San Disk Ultra II CF cards. (I have a PCMCIA CF Card reader in the laptop) Im downloading while im shooting with the other one.

I was going to buy a 4 or 6 Gig micro Drive and stop carrying around the laptop since its heavy and expencive... (Id have a total of 6-8 gigs or storage) And no way of clearning the cards untill i got home. (and i do like to shoot a lot) Always in RAW+M

A friend recomended an option is NOT getting the micro drive, and just getting an iPod photo 20 or 30 gig, and using that with TWO SanDisk Ultra II cards to do what im doing with the laptop.

Then i dont need to carry around an expencive lappy, and id have a small portable storage with a lot of space.

Any comments or sudgestions?
