After spending several days with reading glasses and tweezers trying to manipulate a memory chip that could hide under a broken cornflake, I am convinced that miniaturization really has a bottom line; and for me, this may be it.
"Just because we can" is no longer an acceptable excuse when you realize dropping one of these things on a pile rug means the next entity to find it could the the vacuum or, god forbid, the dog.
Yes, yes, these chips can hold the entire Library of Congress and all the music ever recorded and barely make a presence on the chip, but if the dog sees it as a yummy new edible, it really wont matter, will it.
(deep despairing sigh)
