>>News: Court decision allows Nomai to sell disks in Germany<<

The dam is breaking apart. First, France, now Germany. The rest of Europe can't be too far behind. America isn't out of the question at this point. But you know what? This isn't the worst news.

Not even close.

Since Nomai is able to make and sell Zip Disc knockoffs, other, larger companies are surely developing their own Zip clones. You can be sure that Ampex, Maxell, TDK, and a host of other media makers aren't sitting by, just watching from the sidelines as little Nomai jumps on the gravy train. If little Nomai is projected to grab 10% of the market, how well do you think these other, more well known companies can do?

All of this because of Iomega management's poor patent filings, and shoddy disc rejection features.
