The flash card slot adaptor for Vapor! is only usable if you first purchase the $200 Vapor! drive first, according to the release. Flash card ports CANNOT read Vapor! discs by themselves.

The Zip adaptor idea was brought up when Vapor! was known as No.hand. All claims of Zip compatibility have mysteriously disappeared from spec claims since the product name change.

Add 2+2. It equals No Zip Compatibility for Vapor!

"Since they have already said that they will have an adapter so that you can use Clik! in flash card slots, I see no reason an adapter cannot be made to use a Clik! in a Zip machine."

well, for one thing, the pcmcia card plugs directly into a bus. This allows them to interface a Clik! drive directly to the bus.
