It's interesting to see just how permeant digital memory has become in our lives. It's like everywhere I turn, I see something with a card slot or USB port, haha. I guess it makes sense though, considering how cheap memory has become as of late...
Gahhhh, I shouldn't be complaining. I can't make it through a single day without using my R4 / R4i!
