Pravin,

I believe the high-end will be open to many competitors. Since it is very much in its infant stages, there is enough room for everyone to make money.

The low-end is where the battle is. Once Sony's drive comes out, price will be an issue. If you can have both the regular floppy drive and a zip drive for less than the cost of the Sony drive, what's the compelling reason to go with the Sony drive. Now, if Sony can sell its drive for less that the combined floppy/zip and its disks at comparable zip disks prices (1.5 X Zip disks is ideal), then IOM is in big trouble.

BTW, what happens to the options after this split. I'm holding January 20's (pre-split)
