Re: >>>"the SparQ 1.0, is a 1GB drive for just $199. That's the same price as Iomega's ZipPlus and $200 less than Iomega's 1GB Jaz"<<<

The external 1GB Jaz currently sells for $299 and the internal is $279.

Re: >>>"More and MORE good news that SYQT beats IOM HANDS DOWN, hot off the press"<<< (Fortune article)

The article was posted to the thread by Dartmouth a couple days ago. Interestingly enough, the article also incorrectly states that the Jaz cost's almost twice as much as the SparQ.

Re: >>>"SparQ is one of the top selling products in many different surveys including comp usa, frys, micro center and many more"<<<

You've posted some examples of positive reviews, but you still have not shown where anyone has stated that "SparQ is one of the top selling products" or have given an example of the "many different surveys including comp usa, frys, micro center and many more."

RE: Mixed Review of SparQ?

Thanks for the review. I found this especially interesting:

"Still, if you often travel with lots of data, remember that the Zip drive does retain one advantage--so many people have Zip drives that you can often just carry a Zip disk and leave the drive at home. Sparq doesn't have that ubiquity."

Now where was that article about SparQ being a top seller?
