RE: THEORY...thanks. I guess we will know the answer soon enough. Part of that hypothetical theory is based in fact. There are OEM deals IOM has with major manufacturers that I cannot find any mention of in Iomega press releases. Why would they not want to tell the world of each and every deal they make?

NOTE: The following is strictly based in opinion, which we all have a right to express.

My guess is that this coming week we will see a flurry of OEM deals announced.

As for going short on Iomega, this could be a dangerous time to do that. In light of the fact that top execs are compensated almost entirely in stock [according to Sierk interview], it stands to reason that there is substantial motivation from same to one day drive the stock value up again.

It is my opinion, that there will be a concerted effort [not a conspiracy] to send price back up using announcements of deals, etc. And when the point of most resistance is met, a financial arrangement that guarantees them through the rest of the year will be announced. Shorts run for cover and price goes up fast.

Either way, we shall see very soon...
