Now we have the perfect hindsight. It is so clear now that the last CC by KE and the strategy of hail mary kind of advertisement campaign was really the last gasp of a tired CEO. It will be interesting to see what a new management and CEO will bring to the table. What about the billion dollar advertisement plan? Is it going to be scrapped?

Herb says another shoe will drop. Lower earnings was the first shoe. KE's resignation was the other shoe. Now it's time for something unexpected to the positive side......who knows.

>>The ultimate solution could be a Clik type device that would replace the Zip....once piece of portable hardware for dozens of one's devices. Just my opinion, the ultimate razor blade model<< So, your assumption is that Vapor! will replace Zip. Where does this leave Iomega? Do you think that they want for Vapor! to cannibalize Zip sales? This is a problem, is it not? Zips are Iomega's bread and butter, and Iomega is currently in the middle of a $100 Million ad campaign trying to get Zip moving. Is this part of Iomega's plan to obsolete Zip within this year?
