Orb sounds like it could seriously hurt the Jaz if they can actually produce it in any significant quantity. Compatibility is not as important with Jaz than with Zip.

I'm not sure about Orb's effect on Zip, though. They seem to be in separate markets to me since Orb uses a hard disk while the Zip is floppy. However, the large cost/MB difference could be enough to affect Zip sales too.

I would really like to see a new cutting edge product from Iomega soon. Iomega needs to show it's not just a one product company (yes, it still is for the most part with Zip). Clik! won't be released for so long :(
