That workflow is no different than today with SDCards or CompactFlash cards.

  Most people don't have piles of SDcards just lying around, nor do most people feel happy with just giving away the SDcard they happen to have in their camera if someone wants to keep a few photos they took.

    I wonder how much that would change if one could get SDs in a box of 10 or more at a time, rather than having to grab them individually from the rack. Same thing with optical. I can get a spindle of 50 blanks, so handing off a couple would not bother me.

      I don't know about current cameras, but most of my old cameras have the SD card slot on the inside of the battery compartment or somewhere else kinda inconvenient (and forget about it on most phones - if it's accessible at all). The thing about the Mavica was that the floppy just popped in and out on the side, just like a floppy drive. Nothing difficult about swapping in a new floppy. Now - if your world of cheap SDs in 10 packs came about, hopefully the manufacturers would put the card slot in an easy/intuitively accessible areas (and make it easy to pop one in and out - likely using one of the auto-locking push in to release mechanisms). At this point, though, it doesn't really matter - your phone backs the pics up to the cloud, it's easy to share them from there (or just click on the pic(s) and "share" via umpteen billion options). It's a nice thought, and I know you don't mean it seriously - the world's moved on, I guess...
