CNET News.com is reporting that Panasonic announced a 1-Gigabyte Secure Digital memory card at CeBIT in Hannover, Germany on Friday. They report that the card will cost approximately $500 when it ships worldwide in May. I'm sure that the street price of these things will be lower, when they get to stores across the country.
If you need a very high capacity SD card now, SanDisk has a 1-Gigabyte SD card on the market already. It's considerably cheaper than Panasonic's suggested retail price and it's widely available.
Applications for big SD cards include tapeless digital video cameras like the Panasonic SVAV100 D-Snap Camcorder. We discussed this video camera on Operation Gadget back in November.
