David, sounds like there are more Clik! - digital camera bundling offers to be announced in the near futrue. The Olympus deal is fantastic... an excellent camera, as Phillip proved to us, and now with a free Clik! included! Great news. BTW, I just heard about the following on the early am business news and when I checked Yahoo this morning the following was listed. Although IOM not mentioned specifically in the news item, now that big players like IBM are involved in downloading secure music files over the internet, wouldn't you think that IOM will benefit? After all the Zip disk is the catchers mitt for the Internet!! Hope that this has some potential for selling lots more removable storage products Mel New item follows: ********************************************************************************** IBM Monday February 8, 6:00 am Eastern Time Company Press Release ADVISORY/Major Record Companies and IBM to Demonstrate New Technology for Digital Distribution of Music --(BUSINESS WIRE)-- WHAT: BMG, EMI, Sony Music, Universal Music and Warner Music are joining with IBM to conduct the first-ever trial of a system that permits the fast and convenient distribution of CD-quality albums in a highly secure format over the Internet.
