Isn't it fascinating how some people place such great faith in any announcement by any company other than Iomega?

Orb is shipping? Hmmm. To "selected OEM's". "Initially, the EIDE internal version will be limited to OEM's and Integrators to ensure the highest level of end user customer satisfaction."

Why would end users be unsatisfied if they were able to go down to CompUSA and just buy one of these things?

What this announcement doesn't say is that I can buy an Orb drive yet. I'll accept the terminology, and grant that Orb is "shipping," since I have no evidence that it isn't. But who cares until it's available in stores in quantity.
