Today, Sony and SanDisk jointly announced that they are developing a new solid state storage media for video recording. The cards, SxS memory cards, will have data transfer rates of 2.5 gigabits per second and will benefit from space and weight reduction thanks to their Express Card specifications.
In the announcement, Sony said they will adopt the new memory cards into their professional camcorders "XDCAM EXTM" series later this year.
So far there is no word on pricing or an exact launch date, but they should be on shelves by the end of 2007.
