I'll side with the EDIG'ers on the stupidity of the IoMega HipZip. 40MB is too small, and the reliability of the Clik drives is terrible. I tried using one in conjunction with my digital camera, (copying my a flash memory card to the Clik drive) and returned the drive because it was too unreliable. Quite simply - it lost some photos, and corrupted others. The price argument made by the IoMega rep in the video is rediculous - nobody is going to buy memory sticks for their entire music collection - they will just download what they want to listen to today, just as they would take those CDs that they want to listen to (instead of keeping their entire collection in their car or briefcase...) If you do want to carry an expanded collection with you, a jukebox makes a lot more sense than the HipZip.
