Price: $1,199.00... WOW!!! :o
how many recorders currently could even handle a card that large?

I'm waiting for Marantz to issue a firmware upgrade for my pmd660...then I'm on this...for sure! ;-)

128 Gb is really huge, plus only running 2 channels... I'd feel safer using 3 or 4 of these

besides I don't really think you need a card that fast to record 2 channels of audio
-
two tracks at 192k 24bit and this size card would approximately be 33 hours of recording time.
-
There was a time when 1 GB was HUGE. Who would need that much memory!?
:P
-
seems like way more memory on one card than anyone would need. plus, the price is ridiculous. i could think of much better ways to spend $1,199.

I remember when an 8GB CF card was that price. ;D
-
I took 32GB of photos in 2 days a few weeks ago. If I was on a week long trip I could have taken 128GB of pics...but I'd much rather have 8 16GB cards. Much cheaper and I wouldn't have all my eggs in one basket.
Probably handy for HD video though.
-
I'm not surprised a 32 gig card got filled up in two days considering cameras these days shoot anywhere from 1-60MP. What's the average size of an image on the card? Did you shoot any raw?
How many of the 32 gig images are you going to actually KEEP?

^ this.

I posted a question about this and everyone said that sd/sdhc/micro sd and cf were along the same lines of price.
Why is this 32 gb cf card $300+ and you can get sd/sdhc/micro sd for like peanuts.
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/646876-REG/SanDisk_SDCFXP_032G_A91_32GB_Extreme_Pro_CompactFlash.html
EDIT: Must be the speed???
However this 32gb cf is $161 and there's nothing special about it.

On the other hand, there is this:

I own the the lowest priced 32gig CF listed by newegg and I have never had a problem recording 8 channels at a time with it. I've used even slower cards without a problem. These CF cards are about the same price as the lowest priced SD cards.

This is what I use in my 722 w/ great success :)

UDMA 7 means that it will work great as a boot device. It's probably aimed at wedding & sports photographers for now, since they are the only ones who really need that much speed & capacity.
-
There's also the solid-state video recorder market that could benefit from increased capacity.

A bit expensive for those 128's right now, but the price is only gonna fall.
