<< I don't see any acceleration in Zip sales >>

Iomega has announced that 2.4 million Zip drives were sold in Q3.

If sales increase 40% in Q4, approximately 3.3 Zip drives will be sold in Q4, an increase of about 1.1 million Zip drives per month.

Zip drive 18 million was scheduled to ship between 10/12 and 10/16.

Extrapolating linearly we have:

10/12-16 18,000,000
11/12-16 19,100,000
12/12-16 20,200,000.

Today is December 10. Iomega usually delays the announcement of million milestones for a week or two. Is it not premature to make any conclusion about the growth of Zip drive sales?
