A couple of small points:

The Iomega drives only come in pairs.
The Iomega cartridges cost about 1/3 the others. (This can really add up)
The best price I've seen is Ehmans @ $850 (with 1 cartridge), the next best
price is LaCie's @ $999 (without cartridge).  (We ordered an Ehman but haven't
received it yet)

There is one other verdor who uses Bernoulli technology, Bering. A friend has
one and has had cartridge reliability problems. Someone here at the U has an
Iomega and has had no problems and seems to like it.
