Lets do the math!!!
A 2 GB drive will hold somewhere in the neighborhood of 2,147,483,648 bytes. Each byte is a representation of 1 character, so thats 2,147,483,648 characters. If I recall correctly from my typing class, a "word" is 5 characters. So this particular drive can hold 429,496,729.6 words.

I read an article which said that 1GB is enough to hold a truckbed load of 200 page books, so a 2GB drive would hold more than you will probably write in your lifetime.

Depends on what files you use. But going by my storage rate on my 2 Gig Flash, at least 2-3,000 pages if not more... depends on how much graphics are in your files
