Thanks for all those options Sir CP. Clearly didn't have a good idea of what's out there! I don't really see the need for something all that portable, so that helps narrow it down. 
Yeah that's the thing - I really should get something sooner rather than later. I've already lost a number of photos from the old laptop and would like to prevent that from happening again. Guess I just need to get my arse in gear and make a decision.

I don't know, I see it as the other way around, just in general. Because there's always going to be something new, *always* wait until you *need* something to get it.
But two things:
1. If you need it now, you need it now.
2. Storage is an area where I'm *really* expecting massive growth in the next year or so, depending on how this 3D flash chip technology plays out. So I am personally holding off on adding more disks to my NAS until these 3D flash drives start hitting the market. But then again, if my current 2TB runs out, I guess I'll be buying something.
