clik!TM to unleash the potential of digital cameras and PDAs... Hall 12, Booth B18
At CeBIT '98, Iomega International S.A. will demonstrate the clik!
family of handheld storage devices for the first time in Europe. Smaller than a credit card, the 40 MB clik! disks are designed to enable entirely new generations of products and applications, delivering unprecedented storage capacity to portable products such as digital cameras, hand-held computers, personal digital assistants (PDA's) and smart cellular phones.
Iomega is also demonstrating its entire family of removable storage
products at a two storey stand of more than 500 square metres at CeBIT.
A special section of the booth will be dedicated to computer
manufacturers who offer the Zip drive as a built in option. The products on show include:
clik!TM Over 15 global leaders in the digital photography, imaging and
portable computing industries, including Motorola, Microsoft and Kodak, have all announced strong endorsements for Iomega's new category of mobile storage products.
The clik! product suite includes:
clik! drives - portable, low-cost external drives that can be used with virtually any digital portable product and are small enough to fit in a shirt pocket
clik! drives for OEMs - a miniaturised, low-cost,
low-power version of the drive to be directly built into portable
digital products
clik! disks - low-cost 40 MB removable and reusable
disks which are about half the size of a credit card
clik! accessories
- ultra-lightweight accessories allowing customers to use the clik!
drive anywhere.
ZipPlusTM The Zip Plus drive, the latest member of the Zip product
family, offers users another alternative to the ageing floppy drive.
Using 100 MB Zip disks, the ZipPlus drive has all the features of the
classic Zip drive, in addition to numerous product enhancements
including easier connections, faster performance, a new suite of
multimedia software, as well as enhanced mobility.
Zip Built-InTM Well on its way to becoming the standard for
high-capacity removable storage, Iomega's vastly popular Zip drive is
now bundled by almost every leading OEM in Europe. The Zip drive is
offered as a standard or optional feature in computer models from the
world's top PC vendors including Apple, AST, Compaq, Dell, Gateway,
Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Micron, Packard Bell/NEC, Power Computing and
Unisys. Many of these vendors products will be on show at Iomega's booth at CeBIT.
Notebook Zip Drive The Zip drive is also available for notebook users to meet the high-capacity storage needs of the mobile market. The Notebook Zip drive lends important new functionality to notebook owners, providing the capability to add inexpensive incremental storage to transport and run large presentations and graphics files.
Numerous computer manufacturers have plans to launch notebooks with
built-in Zip drives, including IBM, NEC, Siemens Nixdorf, Compaq and
others. The notebook Zip drive will also be available through major
resellers such as CNF Incorporated for notebook computers manufactured
by Compaq, IBM and Toshiba, and VST Technologies for notebook computers manufactured by Apple and IBM.
Jazr 2GB Drive The Jaz 2GB drive, the "premium" version of the
well-known Jaz 1GB drive, offers greater storage capacity than the
original Jaz drive, along with a 40 per cent performance increase. Both drives are widely used for graphic design, DTP, multimedia, CAD/CAM, software development, audio/video and IT/MIS. Jaz 2GB drives are compatible with 1GB Jaz removable disks.
Buz Multimedia ProducerTM The Buz Multimedia Producer transforms your PC into a VCR by enabling multimedia contents of camcorders, DVD and
CD-ROMs, digital cameras, VCRs and laser disks to be directly stored on Iomega Jaz or Zip disks or on the PC hard disk. Jaz disks are ideal for storing graphics and videos, while Zip disks are the perfect size for short video and sound recordings.
Ditto MaxTM and Ditto Max Pro Iomega's new Ditto Max and Ditto Max
Professional drives with flexible storage capacity break both
performance and price barriers. The Ditto Max tape drives from Iomega
can backup, store and protect as much as 10 gigabytes of compressed
information. Consumers seeking a backup solution for new generations of high-end PCs now have a choice between the Ditto Max drive, which uses tapes of 3, 5 or 7GB, and the Ditto Max Professional drive, which also accepts 10GB tapes. <<<<<<<
