Press Release Body = TAIPEI, TAIWAN (Jan. 9, 2006) --- Silicon Power announced
today, the availability of the new Silicon Power 8GB Compact Flash Card. The
pilot-launching announcement was actually made in early October in New Zealand at
the Silicon Power Annual Dealer Conference.
The new Silicon Power 8GB Compact Flash Card is prime for the times and has set new
high standards in capacity, performance, and low power consumption for longer
shooting and recording. Whether you are on a sun-filled vacation or at your child's
special Christmas play, now you can store more and record longer without concern
for limited capacity, slow performance, or excess battery drain. At your home or
at your office you can take full advantage of huge data back-up onto this
minuscular Compact Flash Card. Now PC users no longer have experience the pains of
system crashes with the fun and easy PC-Booting ability of this tiny sized,
form-factored Compact Flash Card. Also, gone are the days of burning data and boot
files to CD's.

The Silicon Power 8GB Compact Flash Card was recently tested by the highly trusted
benchmark testing authority in Taiwan - DC View. Tested in a Canon EOS 350D, the
Silicon Power 8GB Compact Flash Card stored 953 RAW photos. The RAW image format is
a large, full range capture feature often available in high quality digital cameras.
An unimaginable number shots can also be stored under image capture format settings
such as JPG or TIFF.
Capturing RAW high-resolution images is an experience both brisk and smooth with the
Silicon Power 8GB Compact Flash Card. The optimized controller incites the
highest-ever write speeds and less time between shots for streaming rapid-fire
shooting. Compact Flash cards are the de facto standard in professional cameras
because of their dynamite speed in being transferred the images from a camera\'s
internal memory.
The Silicon Power Compact Flash Ultra 8GB Flash Card represents high capacity and
break-neck speed write performance. In addition, new lower power consumption lets
you shoot even longer. It comes with a typical Lifetime Warranty, as do all Silicon
Power lines of Compact Flash Cards, Secure Digital Cards, and USB Flash Drives.
