Chuck, you said NFR has a relative efficiency of 10:1 recording ratio over the Orb drive. Since the Orb media costs only $30, wouldn't NFR media be 1/10 that for the same storage capacity?

The drive would be more expensive due to the optical components but the media should be much cheaper on a per gb basis. Is this correct?
