SanDisk Corporation this week is shipping the world's first production one-gigabyte (GB) Secure Digital (SD) flash card (MSRP: $499), which contains a unique "stackable" packaging technology jointly implemented with Sharp Corporation of Japan.

This new package employs a low-cost, high-yielding die-stacking process that
is designed to enable SanDisk to double the memory capacity without
increasing the size of the card, thus launching a new generation of
competitively-priced, higher-density flash devices that can store
unprecedented amounts of pictures, music and video.
