SmartDisk Releases 800Mbps FireWire Drive - Announcement Pulled
By Remy Davison, Insanely Great Mac
January 6th 2003

SmartDisk does a  Time Canada. 

SmartDisk has released 800Mb/ps FireWire drives - almost. 

The article,  [article no longer available - Ed.]. titled "SmartDisk New FirePower 
Drive Applies FireWire 800 Mbit/ps" published on Businesswire, was pulled at the 
request of Businesswire and was only available for a few minutes. 

What can be gleaned from the fragments of the PR summary is that these are "a new line 
of high performance desktop hard drives that connect to Apple's computers using 
800Mb/ps FireWire".

The premature release suggests that Apple will intro 800Mb/ps FireWire ports on at 
least some of its Macs during CEO Jobs' keynote Tuesday.

It is unclear why Businesswire would request the item be pulled from Yahoo biz unless 
the call came from Apple. As far as IGM is aware, Apple still has a shareholding in 
SmartDisk.

There is no indication of the release on SmartDisk's home page.
