Why hasn't SD media reached 1 gig storage capacity yet?

Compact Flash is up to 4 gigs last time I checked.

Anyone know what's the hold up for SD media?

It has. The largest capacity SD cards are 2GB. Only problem is, they are available in Japan and not anywhere else.

compact flash is now at 8 GB
