>>Excuse my ignorance, but how long has the 2GB Jaz been advertised for?

I know that the analysts on the Emerald conference call said the 2GB delay won't affect their projections since they didn't include 2GB sales in their estimates. But if the 2GB has been advertised for awhile now, wouldn't that disrupt 1GB sales, since potential 1GB consumers might wait for the release of the 2GB machine? And wouldn't that mean that the 2GB delay WOULD have a negative effect on this quarter's sales?<<

Richard -

Jaz2 has only been advertized for a couple of weeks at the most.

But that is a good observation. Missing revenue from Jaz2 sales might make no difference, while customers delaying purchases could.

Probably not a huge factor either way, though, IMO. Remember that we who follow this stock closely have been aware of Jaz2 for some time now, most consumers have not.
