Thomas, I don't recall IOM management saying anything about the Clik! caddy, other than when KE talked about it in a CC more than a year ago. Here's the link to my post about the caddy patent that I found: Message 6794254 I called Tyler Thatcher to inquire about it and to get his response. He seemed surprised about it, but made no comment. I agree that management should clarify this ASAP. regards, Philip

"ZIP-100 to CLIK! caddy would be a whopper" Sorry, Tom, (IMHO), it just ain't gonna happen. See my posts on the Real Iomega thread: Message 6721539 Message 6814893 Message 6825463 In short, the Zip Classic just doesn't have the areal data density to take a Clik! disk and read it, caddy or no. The key comes in the original announcement (n-hand) whenever, in which the company said that the proposed caddy would work in the "new" Zip drives, which apparently are the Zip 250s.
