I stumbled across this while browsing some palmtop pages and thought
it might be of interest to others here.

It's a PCMCIA type III device with a removable 100 MB cartridge (a-la
ZIP and other Syquest products). Basically a Zip-like drive that fits
into a PCMCIA slot. Cartridges are about 2" square and weigh less
than an ounce - pretty impressive for 100 MB. I can't find any more
info about it. Was it discontinued? Is it really ugly and sticks a
foot outside the PCMCIA slot or something? Anybody know any more?
