The chartered corporate jet will provide fine dining, a far cry from the hot chips, chicken nuggets, hot dogs…snack boxes and more! offered in economy class (if passengers can get a meal at all).

If chips are as hot as power stations, the thinking goes, why not use them as such?

Low-priced camcorders that store images on chips called flash memory are also a hot category, pegged to grow units more than double in 2009.
