>>My sources in Houston tell me that Compaq will shortly announce that IOM's Clik! drive will be included in a bundle with their latest CE-PC...........<<

Horse Hockey! as Colonel Potter would say.

Windows CE does not include the drivers necessary for the Vapor! toy drive. If it did, you can be sure that Iomega would trumpet this news from dusk till dawn.

Microsoft has made no public statement in all of the time Vapor! has been in development that it ever plans to include the drivers necessary into Windoze CE. However, it is interesting that OROM drivers are already included, a full year before OROM is scheduled to hit the market.

All of these rumors about SYQT/IOM and CPQ are pure BS. And anyone who invests in any of these companies based only on these rumors deserves to lose whatever money the Market takes from them.

Ok. we need to hear from Bill Jamison (pardon me, Bill, if I got your name wrong again) in Houston who works for Compaq. You know anything about this?
