Neat!

Is this the smallest size of an industrial SD card these days?

Smallest Swissbit do is 512MB, but that's as it's SLC flash so far lower capacity. https://www.swissbit.com/en/products/product-finder/products...

Looking at pricing, 1GB is only about 25% more in unit quantity.

MLC/TLC flash will be 2GB and up, and most consumer cards you can buy.

So it may still be worth it to support smaller images.
