Remember the time when Sony invented rootkits to make their drm stronger? Pepridge farm remembers.
Remember when Sony made you use a proprietary mini SD card for your handheld instead of just allowing the format that was already in place and widely adopted?
I'm not sure I've ever seen a mini SD card. To me it seems that consumer electronics went from regular SD straight to micro SD, skipping the mini SD step. What was it used for? Phones?
Pretty much.
A very small set of phones used SD, then MMC (thinner), then mini-SD.
Once micro SD arrived, that was pretty much it.
