>>it's a zero sum game<<

Is it really? I don't believe that everyone that would buy a Zip 250 would have bought a Zip 100 if they hadn't seen the 250 on the shelf, or vice versa.

It is possible that there are two separate markets out there (with some overlap of course).

I know some people that have wanted a Zip for a long time, but couldn't bring themselves to part with the $150.00. Those people are now starting to buy the Zip 100 since they have dropped down into their price range. They need functionality on a budget.

I know others that need more speed and capacity, or always want the latest toy no matter what the cost is. These are buying the Zip 250s and Jaz drives. They are usually the power users, or else they just got in the way of a good salesman :-)
