Thanks for your message, rainman.

It wasn't easy writing what I did since there are a lot of people on this thread that will attack you, your character, your mother, whatever if you aren't 110% bullish on IOMG. I personally like the products that IOMG sells, and would be happy to buy it at lower prices, but I just wanted to add a dose of reality about what prices are out there (how other stores in the area will automatically match those prices--which is the same effect as having a Southern CA area price on Zip drives of $179 plus a $50 rebate) and that the market potential out there isn't every single computer ever sold or that will be sold. When dealing with a stock with so many strong emotional attachments to it by the stock-buying public, that's when you need to rely more than even on reason.

I actually would like to see them have a pretty bad quarter so that I could get into it because I believe their products has great potential for the limited market out there that would use them. (Still kicking myself over the head for not buying them last summer when I saw big ads touting them in MacWherehouse and MacMail.) Good luck on your investments.
