Not sure if anyone else has seen this, but I thought it was rather interesting.

Yes I saw that, very exciting and I hope it makes it to commercial release.

I have no idea what the transfer rates are, but I think the goal is long term storage of large amounts of data. Not sure that retrieval times really matter with that.

I'll even be picky about shape & colour.
