Wouldn't you agree that a device that is supposed to replace the floppy drive, and is in only about 5% of new computers needs better sales than the 40% shipment reduction in successive half years?

Even the 22% increase in first half sales year to year Travis insists happened (I didn't check those numbers yet) is not indicative of a rapidly growing device-- Especially since the growth from the previous year was about 100%. This indicates a growth curve that is rounding (or has rounded) the curve and is on its way back down. Go ahead and draw a chart yourself. It gets pretty scary looking.

Especially consider the fact that the first serious competitor (Sony HiFi) is about to hit the shelves.
