Memory cards are tough

CompactFlash, Secure Digital, xD, Memory Stick and Smartmedia cars were dipped into cola, put through a washing machine, dunked in coffee, trampled by a skateboard, run over by a child's toy car and given to a six-year-old boy to destroy. All survived. Digital cameras are the way to go and it's nice to know the memory cards aren't as fragile as they might look.
