Maybe the manufacturers of these devices will change to another filesytem (they can take their pick from many choices available in Linux & BSD) in order to avoid paying the licencing fees.

Wishful thinking... If you're selling $500 digital camera, would you be complaining that you have to pay $0.25 license fee (or whatever it is)?

My impression was that it applies to the removable devices, such as the memory "disks". Incidenally, my camera uses 8.3 file names. Does that mean I can get my $0.25 back from his Billyness? ;-) -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.
