Does Panasonic do anything to lock out alternate brand memory cards? For example, it basically looks like a PC Card memory card, and my understanding is that a notebook computer can read P2 cards as a drive.
I'm curious if they have taken any means to prevent a CF card + CF to PC Card adapter combination from working. A 16GB P2 card costs $900 at B&H, but a CF to PC Card adapter is like $5 and a 16GB card runs from $150 to $300, depending on brand and speed grade.
