>The only thing that I could see causing an announcement earlier than that would be in responce to competition, such as the LS-120 ACTUALLY shipping in quantity, or the Mitsumi 128Mb drive showing up.< end of quote from Guy Gordon Guy, I see the impending crunch to get OEM's to incorporate either the Zip drive or the LS-120 as "competition". While the Zip 100 has a speed advantage over the LS-120, that alone might not be enough to grab the OEMs and establish Zip as the standard; however, if they can reduced costs (which they are using ASICS and other integration), and the bump up the storage capacity to 200mb similtaneously, they seem to me better positioned to get OEMs to choose their 200mb drive over a S-L-O-W, more expensive, 120mb LS-120 drive. --ron
