[Empeg-ice] Iomega Peerless now shipping: Empeg response?

[lax@empegbbs-noreply.merlins.org]

Looks like Iomega is now shipping its "Peerless" storage carts (ruggedized IBM Travelstar drives).  Some have commented this is similar (identical?) to Phatbox media.  Anyone know much about this?  

Seems interesting, esp. since Iomega already markets its own (Clik-- er, PocketZip) MP3 devices.  I'd expect SonicBlue might not be interested in licensing this type of cart for its own devices, though it seems a reasonably promising product idea.
