2 GB Jaz Sorry if this is old news . . . I was in CompUsa today, and while there were no 2 GB Jazs on the shelf, I found an Iomega rebate coupon for them!!! The coupon (actually not a coupon but an advertisement) says that the drive has an 8.7 MB sustained transfer rate. Also, FYI, they had 8 ft. of vertical shelf space JUST FOR ZIP DISCS. Plus, a complete end display. Plus, 4 ft of vertical space for the zips (unfortunately, they only had the parallel in stock). Syjet 1.5 GB was there for $349 (forgot if this was for the int or ext). Both internal and external were there. Plus, they were selling the EZFlyer discs for $35 each. Plus, there were plenty of Superdrives there (no one's buying them). Plus, saw a Sony computer displayed with a zip drive built in. There were no Zip Pluses in stock (they have yet to get any in). They also had coupon advertisements for the 7 GB dittos. Looking good!!!
