I use a notebook (new Mac Book Pro coming), from the start - if I run out of space on it, I'm in trouble (150GB). Offers lots of advantages over something like P5000. Shooting tethered (where you can) is also much better than the preview on the back of the Phase.

As regards your P5000, I think it's a simple case that they don't support Phase RAW files. These devices are aimed more at the consumer  and semi pro market, would be my guess as to why.

Cheers

Check out the Digital Foci Picture Porter Elite. It will display the Phase TIFFs and store the files. Mine is a 100GB model.
