Ron... FWIW I actually prefer this policy. In the past Kim Edwards would announce products way in advance and then had to keep pushing ship dates back, this costs credibility. Clik! was N-hand originally and was pre announced and kept getting pushed back as the capacity needed to increase. I think the new policy is to announce when the product is ready to ship is a much better one. JMHO BB ^-^- Can someone please explain to me why there have not been any positive press releases as of late, with the exception of a few "product preferred choice" clippings?

Ron, it would seem that nothing 'substantive' is happening at Iomega these days. No wonder the stock is stuck in the mud. Lots of wishful thinking going on here. We'll see. I'm getting an uneasy feeling re. possibility of a 'pre-announcement'. NOT repeating a rumor or trying to start one; just stating a personal concern. Looking at the number of boxes on shelves with Super Thingy built-in v. Zip built-in makes a powerful statement about which product is odd-man-out. YO! Jodie! Someone is making the 500 lb. Gorilla of removable storage look like a monkey!
