<<<What is going on with MCI?

1. Is MCI deal off?
2. Could the delay due to MCI wants to manufacture every parts of ZIP drive?>>>

I spoke with Susan Stillings last week on this. Volume production has not begun. The ramp up to volume started with the second MCI announcement. They will be coming out under the Panasonic name.

NEC starts production 3Q, but she was unaware as to whether or not this was going to be in volume. She said she would get back to me this week on that and a couple other questions I had.
