22 Gigs of Orb disks for less than $310 including shipping!

I have been bugging CDR Express www.cdrexpress.com for about a week. They just shipped me 10 disks ( = 22 GB) today ($309.50 US including shipping). Compare that to Jaz disk prices, and you'll learn the meaning of "bated breath."

As you can see, people are now taking great advantage of Castlewood Orb's tremendous price advantage over Iomega's Painfully expensive Jaz rip-off. In fact, fixed hard drives cannot beat 22 Gigs for $300. Not even close. Orb is even more cost-effective than CD-RW disks.

In fact, Castlewood Orb is the most cost-efficient means of re-writeable disk storage EVER. What can Iomega do? Whatever action they take, it almost certainly means lower margins. And as a result, bigger losses.

And thus, a lower IOM stock price. IOM will be in the $2's shortly.
