Rod, I was very surprised and disappointed at the PCmag Buz review. Earlier (although less thorough) indications were that it not only offers capabilities its peers do not, it performs quite well in those that they share. This, combined with the now infamous customer service complaints, have me concerned. Iomega needs to be known as a leader. These two problems boldly contradict that. Clik needs a clean launch and they must fight HiFD with all their might. I don't care about the Sony name, we've already established they've botched as many attempts to make things standards as they had successes with. My employer, a very large firm (5,000+ employees), is going with Zip because of compatibility. Dell has gotten rich because of the business world embracing them (my employer has also switched from IBM/HP/Compaq/G2000 to Dell). I truly believe the $100 million advertising campaign was launched to try to solidify Zip before HiFD can hit the market. Buz and Jaz are still second in importance to Zip and Clik in my book. It's about volume. Fortunately, Zip was an editors choice in removable. BTW, why aren't we hearing more about laptop Zip and this "Eagle" mini Zip?
