Vapor! Desperation

The search for OEM's has gone so badly for Vapor!, that Iomega has resorted to a pathetic plea for ANYONE to include it in ANY device. Just check this out:

iomega.com

It's the Official Iomega Vapor! Plea Page.

I wish them luck. They'll need it. I can already picture all of the irate users of Vapor! complaining about their lost pictures due to handling, and moisture that is inherent in the portable niche.

>> big section which includes the test results from the Nomai testing. <<

The biggest and most important test of Nomai"s product will be done by consumers in real world conditions. If IOM's results truly reflect what real world users will experience, then the whole issue is a non-event (except for the temporary turbulence of passing through it). If not, .......well, there's others here who will be more than willing to tell us all about it.
