Yes I must admit the price is high, last I checked it's more up here, I was also thinking use it as storage, but I guess that would not be feasible, lost, stolen, broken, longevity??, I got this idea from using my 7" LCD screen that I tether to my video cam and my D90, alas no storage just the screen, "All the better to see you with my dear" (I'm handicapped I need glasses) tongue in cheek.....
