"Anybody have any reasons why Iomega has not put the internals on the shelves?"

Jay, my guess is that IOMG will have a hard time supplying the internal IDE
Zip to all OEM. There are quite a few of them. Once they ramp up
with enough volume on the IDE version to meet orders from OEMs,
I think they may offer them to retail channels.

The other reason may be that internal IDE Zip would sale at signifcant lower cost,
say only $99, which will undermine the more profitable external version and lower
revenue base at this point. I do believe the internal IDE version will become available
at some point tin time.
Just some wild guesses
