Yes, however, someone here mentioned that teh disks were around $12 
apiece several years ago.  They haven't really caught on as a standard 
(who knows maybe they'll be some kind of wearable standard :).  My main 
goal is to build a basic wearable that's upgradable in the future, for as 
little money as possible.  That's why I'm trying to stick with standard 
off the shelf parts likethe floppy drive (3.5")
