Two months ago some of the new IBM mobile harddisks have been send to PC
manufactors like Compaq, HP and Dell. See www.ibm.com/harddrive,
www.compaq.de, www.hewlett-packard.de, www.dell.de.
Here is a link to the specs etc. of the new IBM mobile harddisks:

However, there wasn't any concrete announcement, when they can be *really*
bought by endusers.
Greetings Valentino
