I've always loved the tactile feel of floppy disks. The way they slide into slot, lock into place, and plop out when you push the button.

I want a floppy disk form factor with a storage chip inside. As an added bonus, it should have an e-ink screen for labeling.

I loved the 3.5 floppies too. Maybe the Star Trek TOS "book-tape" was the right idea all along. Wonder if the in-universe people were clueless where the "tape" part of the name came from?
