It says it uses the zip mech. and uses zip disks....can they do that without getting sued....or do they pay iom for the zip mech? or is this licensed? whats they deal.....looks like a good way to sell more carts? the drive price is close to the vst (reduced price)

RE: Ultra-small Zip Drive.

Good find!

That's about the size of their internal IDE drive.

Quoted dimensions: 7x4, 13 oz.
Internal IDE: 6.5x4x1, 13.5 oz.

How in the heck will revenue sharing work on this new Addonics zip drive?? Should help the Zip disks.

Question: Does the notebook zip from CNF and VST require an outside powersource as described in the article? That would be terrible!

The Addonics mentions it will work in the PC slot that all notebooks have. Do they mean the PCMCIA slot??? Couldn't be, it would be way to big.?.?.?.?.?
