Iomega Personal Cloud devices host your data, not your water vapor

Finally, a new flavor of Iomega that the EMC fanboys can find
palatable. The bigger company consumed the smaller back in 2008 and,
while we've seen plenty of products since then, none have really
brought the two together like the new Personal Cloud edition of the
Home Media Network Hard Drives. In theory, anyway. The idea here is
that this is a smart NAS, creating your own little puff and hosting
your data for general availability but avoiding the "careless
computing" curse by retaining control of your data. It'll naturally
play nice with the new Iomega TV and, if you buy two of the things,
you can have one perform an automated remote backup to the other.
That's the sort of feature that should make a tight-budgeted IT
manager's ears perk up. How tight? The first two models of Iomega's
Home Media Network Hard Drive Cloud Edition devices launch this month:
1TB for $169.99 and twice that for $229.99.
