My view is that Iomega is pulling out of the Fuji deal, and already have a substitute media maker. I expect that the quality will improve because this new media is specically designed for Iomega's disks. I don't know how this transition will take place, but I'm betting that quality and reliability of Iomega's new media will be completely satisfactory. Tom
