If anything falls off that truck...
I bought a 1 gigabyte memory card for my new digital camera today. It costs $70 and is a bit larger than a nickel. It's quite amazing that something so small can store 4 billion pixels of information. That many pixels, if printed out, could cover 4.5 million square feet, or 14 acres, or a typical two-lane road for 25 miles. And that's all compressed to something so small it has a child-choking warning.
I figure the little bugger weighs around a gram, which means that one ton of these little things would cost $76M. Excepting fine jewelry, memory cards may well be the most expensive thing, gram-for-gram, that an ordinary person would ever buy.
