some questions for short-iomaniacs:

Why are announcements of products from Sony/Castlewood/Syquest treated as gospel truth, with everything expected to work perfectly, while announcements from Iomega treated with disdain?

Why would the Clik! drive also need expensive flash RAM instead of cheap SDRAM?

Why do you keep looking at the past in trying to value the stock instead of looking at the future like other investors?

Why do you think it's a bad thing for Iomega to spend money to grab market share, even if it means going cash flow negative for a quarter or 2?

Why do you ignore the potential of Clik!, which even Rod has recently decided is bigger than Zip?

Why, after bashing IOM's price rise because there was no volume behind it earlier in the week, aren't you concerned with a big price rise on high volume in the last 2 days?

Why are you already bashing Clik!'s quality, before the product has even been released?

IOM is currently up 35% from it's price 2 weeks ago. And up over 700% from its price 3 years ago. Why do you persist in seeing weakness in its price?

IOM was recently at 16 - don't you agree it will probably return there quickly with a successful Clik! introduction and/or big improvement in Zip OEM penetration (or even the perception that these things will happen?)
