What a great line up!!!! I'm talking of course of Sandisk's "best in class" Extreme Ducati edition line of memory cards and USB flash drive. Frankly I was a bit surprised (but definitely not shocked!) of this very sexy launch here in "prude" Silicon Valley where "performance" rarely meets "flesh", so to speak, or vice and versa! However, I'm not sure everybody appreciated the cat walk at it's most... but I did... so did Eli... I think ;-)

Anyway, let's go back to what director of worldwide retail product marketing for the high performance imaging market at SanDisk (what a mouthful!), Tanya Chuang (right), had to say about the new line up, the company's most performant.

It's targeted to the photographers, the gadget enthousiasts and the ducatisti (Ducati fans).

This Extreme line (as well as the previous one), will outlast any SLRs in "extreme" weather conditions.

With the Extreme IV product line, Sandisk outperformed most SLR capabilities. However, while waiting for the cameras to catch up, the Extreme Ducati did improve the performance by 5 Mbits per seconds over the previous Extreme IV line.
