    CNET Review

    November 14, 2008

    The Good: Design is a mirror image of the attractive Apple MacBook Air; Drop Guard protects against long falls; competitive cost per gigabyte; fast transfer speeds.

    The Bad: Lacks additional power port; short warranty; no FireWire support.

    The Bottom Line: The Iomega eGo Helium is a cost-effective solution for MacBook Air users who need additional data storage and don't want to sacrifice form for function.
