Been away for awhile... I find all these stock threads worthless and a large waste of time. They serve to focus you away from the real object of investing -- to make money. The boards can have some entertainment value, however... Anyway, I was surfing today and happened to see the same old garbage being posted on this thread. I just don't see why you guys cannot see this. The problem with the ZIP is that it does NOT support mainstream media. This has been and will continue to be the downfall. Floppies, CD-ROM, DVD, and even mini-disk are the mainstream media. ZIP is still a toy, with a limited life. Without a mass market, it is doomed to low tie ratios.. period!!! It's that simple. To be a mainstream media you must be CHEAP and supported for information distribution. About CLIK!: I just do not see Joe Blow buying this device. What is the marketing plan to get people to buy this device? What is the value proposition? Why is it a 'have to have'?? How can it rise above a 'niche?' can it near the ZIP in popularity? If ZIP was a grand slam, how often does two get hit in a game? Digital cams? HA! The volume is at the low end, disposable market. Try to get Joe Blow buying more than one of these... I just cannot see people rushing out to buy this... Oh well.. I guess I'm just stupid or something.. I've been really wrong on this stock so far ;). kp
