I've just had coffee with a guy from Panasonics HD development team, and the word is that 16 gig cards are going to be available from May this year!!!

No coffee needed for that..Panasonic already released a press info at the end of february about the May-timing....no price yet, and i hope they will be in time...from what i understood technicly, its possible that they had to do the migration to the new SD cards and that for change the controller and stuff(thats at least what i heard from a dealer a couple of weeks ago, and he knew from the best friend of his brother cat...)
So i hope we will see the 32GB cards this year, as i am really tired of all this swappy swapping!

Probably they will introduce the 16GB cards at the old price of 8GB....thats pure speculation, but higher price would be ridicilous.....as they had announced 550€(ex. VAT) for the 8GB card back in december in europe already..but stepped back shortly after that...!

Enough rumour...?!
 
Following usual procedures, Panasonic has a press conference on Sunday 4/15 before the beginning of NAB. I would not be surprised to see pricing announcements at that point. But, until they announce it, we are all guessing.
