Yes that makes sense. Great explanation. Thanks for taking the time to write it up. A follow up question is why not be maximally efficient and increase each generation of capacity 4x instead of 2x? Since manufacturers currently double memory each generation, then every other generation the...

Can you post a picture to illustrate what you mean by wasted wires? I'm not seeing why a 2gb card or 4gb card is efficient but a 3gb card is inefficient.

I've noticed both ram and flash card memory capacities only double. For example memory cards only come in 1 gb, 2gb, 4gb, 8gb, 16gb, etc and not something in between. Is this just arbitrary manufacturer choice or is there something about memory architecture that causes this to happen?

does that actually solve the problem people are complaining about? anyone else have any recommendations?

I'm looking to upgrade to a wifi-n router. I was about to just get a buffalo router (WHR-HP-G300N or WZR-HP-G300NH) because i've been happy with them before for wifi-g routers but looking at newegg reviews there are a lot of complaints about needing to reset the router every few days. Then i...
