Reseller, First of all, the E & Y deal came at a price, that is a big discount for the right to mention E & Y in a press release. It doesn't mean they will actually buy the 2000 units mentioned. There won't be any real profit in this sale. They are desperate. Clik, IOM is shipping one million drives a month, as soon as they announce Clik, they have to have big production in place. Nothing can kill a company like being unable to deliver new product to satisfy initial demand. My bet Clik prototypes are in beta testing and they are working out the bugs. To fit into so many different types of products, they have to be extremely careful. Any bad PR at the beginning can kill a product intro. Rockhead: I don't know about you, but I am tired of his dominating the topics on this thread. I have a solution. Can someone please wangle him an invitation to visit Saddam Hussein? I bet there is a real nice seat next to the big man that Rocky could occupy as an honored guest. You know in one of those Presidential Palaces we are about to dust. We can take up a collection to send him there. Have a nice trip, me boy, we will all miss you. Regards, David S. Long on Intel and Iomega
