External "DVD player" for notebooks. The press release says "DVD player" rather than "DVD-ROM drive", so I assume it includes an MPEG-2 decoder on the PC card. Was it the Police who sang: "Who can it be now?"............ newsalert.com <<SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 6, 1998--CNF, Inc. announced today that it has moved its global headquarters to Scottsdale effective immediately. CNF, Inc., a privately held corporation, designs, manufactures and markets portable peripherals for the growing, global notebook computer industry. CNF, Inc., in its tenth year of business, has seen its growth double in each of the last two quarters. "It's an exciting time for us. We're in the midst of a company-wide expansion and we've simply outgrown our present location," said Paul Charles, CNF President. CNF also operates a research and engineering facility in Scottsdale. "It makes financial sense to have all of our departments under one roof," Charles added. In the first two quarters of this year, CNF will have introduced eight new products to market including the first-ever portable, external, slimline PC-CARD DVD player; and new internal, InnerBay Zip drives for the Compaq 7700, Toshiba Satellite and Satellite Pro, IBM ThinkPad 770 and Hewlett-Packard OmniBook 2000 and 5000 series notebooks. In addition, CNF will introduce its first CNF branded product, the deviceDOCK for Toshiba and IBM notebooks. >>
