The life in a digital camera isn't the concern, it is the low loss of
opertunity if it fails. Not to mention it should live as long as the
usefullness of the cameras. 

I think you are right about the cost of a laptop drive. A micro 2.2g
drive is $148 plus an adapter to hook it to standard IDE. For that price
you could probably get a 40gig drive in laptop form factor or 200gig in
normal form factor.
