>>Currently, Iomega is the low-end optical storage market share leader, with its Zip Drive garnering approximately 87 percent of sales this year, according to Wolfgang Schlichting, senior research analyst with International Data Corp., based in Framingham, Mass.<<

Eric -

Weird article. Neither the Zip drive nor (as far as I know) the proposed Sony drive is optical.

>>"[Iomega] lowering their prices would be a strong strategy to stay competitive in the market place," he said. "I wouldn't be surprised to see a sub-$100 Zip Drive."<<

I wouldn't be surprise either, considering that Kim Edwards has been talking about that as a goal for more than a year. This guy is really on top of things, eh?
