Interesting link, but I'm confused by his references to Sony. Their drive doesn't exist except on paper, yet he's talking about it like it's available at Wal-Mart. From what I gather, the drive won't appear until late this year and who know what the pricing or performance will be. If we project the Zip numbers out 6 months, I wouldn't be surprised to see 2 million+ going out a month with an inclusion rate around 20%--that kind of lead is going to be hard to surmount, yet this fact isn't given much attention in the article. He says he's betting on Sony? How can you bet on somebody that not even in the game?

On the other hand, as mad I was yesterday, this article indicates just how unaware people are about IOM and the inroads that the Zip has made. I think we might just get that nice pop in the stock price once IOM puts out their numbers since people like this guy are bound to be "surprised" by information that been discussed here for the last 2 months.
