It's a very good solution if you have many friends or associates with laptops (which, incidentally, I don't right now). It's also a good as-needed field backup solution, especially for those with subnotebooks (such as my L50 or my Picturebook). I wish they'd taken off better in the market--I like the form factor a lot better than Zip media. Someone else posted to the list saying they're coming out with a 100MB version this year. That'd be nice (but I'm not buying one, now that I'm the proud owner of one--and more to come--of the 40MB version. Plus, they make great gifts at $20 apiece. -e. - Original Message - From: David Chien [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Libretto [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 12, 2001 5:50 PM Subject: Re: Iomega CLIK!

Do you think they're: a) discontinuing them; or Just not competitve vs. solid-state flash cards which are not as magnetic field dust sensitive, and the fact that nobody (today's laptop buyers) use them vs. the built-in CD-RW drives. After all, with most new 500+Mhz notebooks with CD-RW drives selling for only ~$1000, and CD-R discs going for $0.10 per disc (if not free with rebates in Sunday paper ads), it makes no sense at all to use a Clik! disc for the majority, esp. when the discs aren't readable in other peoples machines without the adapter (whereas CD-R discs are). However, for the single user wanting some portable storage to hold data just in case the HD goes, it's not a bad option considering how cheap they are for 40MB, and that media is going for a decently cheap price on www.ebay.com. -- Otherwise, it's like this. Iomega sent me one for free. I stared at the pretty metal box and the contents in wonder for a few hours, played with it in laptop and PDA (doesn't work in Sharp Zaurus japanese PDA - too little power to spin it up), thought the transfer rates were so anciently slow ala a ZIP drive (we're talking slow like a floppy, not fast like a 16x+CD-RW drive; slower than a smartmedia flash card even!), and have the Zio! USB SmartMedia pocketable, flash card reader where I can plug in my 128MB card into any PC to transfer files, stared at the pretty metal box some more, then sold it on Ebay for quite a bit of money last year to buy something more useful, like a Lexar compact flash card with seperate PCMCIA adapter (the Lexar cards come with free USB adapters, but you'll need a seperate $10 PCMCIA adapter to PCMCIA slots and laptops w/o USB). = adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ __ Do You Yahoo!?

The only adapter that would fit that description that I have seen is for smart media cards to a 3.5 floppy. This won't work for CF, pcmcia or anything else except I think there is a sony stick version too. As far as desktop pcmcia slot costing 5x, you don't shop around enough. :-) The last three I have bought cost me $25 each from a vendor on Ebay. All brand new in the box dual slot pcmcia with 1 type II and 1 type III. The only drawback is that they use an ISA slot but they work flawlessly in win9x/me. Couldn't get it to work in win2k but NT's pcmcia support has always been bad, hopefully it will be better in winXp. Pete Borders On 12 Jul 2001, at 8:21, S. G.
