Please consult the Iomega board press release for the Zip. It clearly states that higher capacity is merely a matter of media refinement...not of the electronic or mechanical aspects of the Zip. The implication is that 200 mbyte disks are possible. Now..since they are making huge sales of these things as is, I don't expect to see 200 meg disks for a long while (9 months to a year)..or earlier if they are threatened by another product. Note that no one at IOMEGA will absolutely DENY the possibility of higher capacity disks for the Zip 100...however, it IS called the Zip 100. -- Roger A.
