SyJet is no threat

1. SYQT has announced that they are "taking orders" for SyJet. No indication of when it will be in volume production.

2. It is not clear that SYQT has the financial means of ramping up SyJet production even if they do manage to ship a few units sometime next month.

3. No OEM agreements for SyJet vs. Roland, Sony, Power Computing for Jaz.

4. Price points are being dictated by IOMG, not by SYQT. Not clear if SyJet can be profitable at these prices (remember SYQT lost a ton of money on the EZ-135 trying to match Zip's prices).

5. IOMG has already stated that they have a 2Gb Jaz drive in the lab.
