>>Ioptic's device has got to be read-only (i can't imagine anyone getting the electronics to burn cds - or meeting the power requirement - in a small device).

If so, this is no different than the Sony minidisk - a technology that went nowhere fast.<<

To be completely accurate, MiniDisk is a read/write medium. I have a MiniDisk recorder sitting a few feet away.

RE: Vapor! killer

"OROM reads data that is prerecorded on two-dimensional cells by an array of light sources, with one light beam assigned to each cell of data, and then converts the data into digital data. "

It look like it is only a read only device.

According to Ioptic's web page, there will be more info March 23.
