The news should be that this was announced some time a go, but is still delayed. I've been reading press releases (such as this, sadly undated example [seagate.com]) since March of this year (yes, almost 8 months a go). No release date given in the article provided by the submitter, but I've heard rumours of Q2 2007.

This should be good when it's released, but I've long since stopped holding my breath.

Which is why smart people use something that give plausible deniability.

truecrypt [truecrypt.org] allows you to create a double encrypted volume. 2 passphrases. 1 - lets your torturers into a set of incriminating looking but innocent files, the other lets you into the real files. there is NO WAY to detect or extract the real files from the planted files.

look innocent to the coppers while you continue to hide the goodies.

looks even better if you have other things that use the same planted password and are your tax info ,etc...

Isn't commercial copyright violation a criminal offense? You can do jail time for it...

there is NO WAY to detect or extract the real files from the planted files.

Actually, if they monitor changes to the drive on the sector level, they would see the blocks of the hidden volume changing, which would make no sense if they exist in a section of the (outer) TrueCrypt volume that contain no files. And these changes would be visible on a journalling filesystem. So it's recommended you don't use one.

(this is all in the TrueCrypt FAQ's by the way)

if you are silent before being advised of your right to remain silent, it can be used against you

You mean before being arrested, I presume. Once you've been arrested, they immediately inform you of miranda, BECAUSE they can't use anything you say before that point.

If you invoke your right to remain silent and then later speak up, it can be used against you.

They don't gag you when you decide to remain silent. You can change your mind at any time, of course.

If you invoke your right to an attorney after being advised that you have the right and then later speak up, it can't be used against you.

No. Only if they continue to interrogate you after you ask for an attorney, can it be thrown out. If the suspect asks for an attorney, then spontaneously volunteers info, it would be usable. Conversely, after the attorney arrives, anything you say can be used (which is why lawyers repeatedly advise you not to say anything).

So if you get arrested, tell them to advise you of your rights and then immediately demand an attorney.

Generally good advice. And beforehand, you should repeatedly ask if you are being placed under arrest, and if you are free to go, otherwise they can essentially (defacto) interrogate you with no miranda restrictions, as long as they like.
