Believe it or not, Olympus’ original Type M xD-Picture Card crashed the scene over a year ago, so it’s about time its successor showed up, don’tcha think? The revamped (and ever-so-slightly renamed) M+ card promises data transfer speeds of up to 1.5 times faster than the vanilla Type M, yet somehow still supports “virtually all digital cameras with xD-Picture Card slots” — whatever that means. Unfortunately, these speedsters still cap out at 2GB, and while pricing deets remain undisclosed, they should be landing sometime in April for all to see.
