Ta Daaa! Announcing the new Iomega JAZZ drive! Saw it at the iomega
website. Pretty piece of kit. 500 or 800 Mb capacity and yes, it's
slower than a hard drive, but reportedly a bit faster than a CD ROM! I'm
not sure if it is SCSI or =. You may wish to check it out. BTW, it is
expensive compared to the ZIP or garden variety tape drives.
