To All: Anecdotal, but possibly one of the most bullish pieces of evidence for IOMG out there:

In the entrance of Best Buy in Little Rock yesterday (OK, I said it was anecdotal), there was one of their displays (usually devoted to $3.99 CD's) of 50-packs of Verbatim 3.5" floppies - for 9 cents/floppy (after rebate)! And another one for a second company's, at a slightly higher price. Now, these folks don't have to use rebates in order to get market penetration :-). To state the obvious, IMHO - Fire sale, Someone sees the handwriting on the wall.

Now, this would be bullish for other high-capacity removables out there but they're still AWOL (Oh, yeah, there was ONE EZ-Flyer on the shelf at Best Buy along with all the Zips & Jazs).
