Andy:

Not to be rude but, Syquest and SparQ-HAHAHAHAHA, Castlewood and ORB, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH.

For a company to be successful, they need to be able to manufacture a product and sell it for a profit. Syquest has no capitol to ramp manufacturing. Hard to take over a market when you have no product on the shelves. And even if they could make enough, there can't be any margins in SparQ. If they can make it for what they claim, I can only imagine what IOMs profit margins look like on the Jaz. I wouldnt want to get into a price war with IOM. Last time I looked IOMs pockets(hell even KEs pockets, thanks Dale:) are deeper than SYQTs.

As far as Castlewood and the ORB, they will soon find out that in the US there are things called patents, and they must be respected. I wouldn't be surprised to see IOM file suit against them soon, along with SYQT(who has already filed I believe)

I see the Jaz has already won an award at Comdex this year. I dont think KE and gang are losing any sleep over the hehe, competition
