So transfer the files to your computer first.

Its a bit inconvenient for zip users (like myself) but I agree with them not supporting it on this machine. I don't care though, I don't see myself buying the 2500 anytime soon.

No more chance of losing everything to click of death. :D

Flash cards are much better, also with 128mb of ram you could fill up your zip disks pretty quickly.

I was hoping for zip support as well..but I guess it is time to move on. My computers all have multicard drives and I have an external zip drive. It will be very easy for me to trabsfer all my zip disks to a compact flash card...my Fantom XR uses compaq flash cards as well so they will compliment eachother well!
