1.   “What is an INNOVACARD™?”  An INNOVACARD is a CD Rom Business Card that is produced from the same high quality material as a standard CD-ROM.

2. “How does it work since its not the size of a traditional CD?” Originally computer CD-Rom and DVD-Rom drives were designed with the capability of reading 3-inch CDs.That is why your desktop computer has an inner ring on the CD tray/cartridge.  The INNOVACARD fits into this inner ring on desktops or snaps directly onto the spindle of your CD/DVD-Rom drive on your laptop.

3. “How can you shape a CD-Rom or audio CD without corrupting the information on it?” Since CD drives read the information from the inside out, the information remains intact after the cutting/molding process has finished.  The blank space left on the outer portion of the CD can be eliminated.   The amount of storage required dictates how much can be successfully discarded.

4. “What are the major differences between the 3 INNOVACARD™ models?” 

  • The INNOVACARD™ Esquire is our premier card. It holds about 40MBs and receives the highest quality silkscreening available. It is molded using a patented process which appears as two CDs in width.

  • The INNOVACARD Business is cut from a standard CD. It holds the same amount of information as the INNOVACARD Esquire (32 MBs) except it has 2 rails on the bottom on which it sits. This model is perfect for those companies trying to promote their business on a tight budget.

  • The INNOVACARD Standard is also cut from a standard CD, but the edges of the card retains the natural curve of a CD-Rom. This model is perfect for those that require up to 100 MBs of data on the card.
5. "How much information can be stored on an INNOVACARD™?" The INNOVACARD Business and Esquire models can store approximately 32 MBs of data. That is equivalent to about 5 minutes of video (descent quality), 10000 pages of text, 2500 web pages with pictures, or a 15-minute multimedia presentation. The INNOVACARD Standard can be made to hold up to 100 MBs (size will be slightly larger). The amount of content will vary based on picture, video, or audio quality. The 15-minute multimedia presentation is based on Macromedia Flash/Shockwave technology.


NOTE: THE INNOVACARD STANDARD CAN HOLD UP TO 100 MBs (APPROXIMATELY 15 minutes of video, 25000 pages of text, 7500 we pages with pictures or a 45-minute presentation)

6. "Will the INNOVACARD™ work on both PC and MAC computers?" Yes, the INNOVACARD will work on both PC and MAC platforms if the client desires. NOTE: If the client desires a dual-format card (i.e. it will run on both PC and Mac computers) the amount of information that can be stored will be reduced to about 50% since it will have to store both a PC and a MAC version!

7. "What quality artwork will be on the face of the INNOVACARD™ ?" We use a high-resolution 5-color silkscreen process (4-color plus a white background).

8. "What are the minimum requirements necessary to properly view the INNOVACARD™ ?"· PC: Software: Windows 3.1/95/98/NT/2000 Hardware: (minimum requirements) 486SX or greater 8 MB of available RAM 8 - bit sound card · MAC: Software: OS 7.1 or higher Hardware: PowerPC or newer

9. "Are the INNOVACARDs scratch resistant?" Yes. Much like standard CD-Roms they do contain a scratch resistant coating that will hold up under normal wear and tear. The INNOVACARD Business is less prone to scratches since it stands on the two rails.

10. "What is the total development lead time?" Development lead-time depends on the length of the presentation desired and any changes you desire during the creative process. Usually this will be between 2 and 3 weeks from the date that we receive all necessary content.

11. "What is the total manufacturing lead time ?" Normal production lead-time is 2-3 weeks. Faster times are available.

12. "What types of packaging is available for the INNOVACARDs?" Vinyl, and paper sleeves are readily available. Postcard mailers and other specialty packaging are available upon request.

13. "How much does the INNOVACARD™ weigh?" They weigh about half the weight of a standard CD- Rom, which when placed in a postcard mailer can be mailed for about 15 cents (USA)!

14. "Can I supply my own content to be place on an INNOVACARD™?" Yes, you may supply us with your own completed content for the INNOVACARD. We recommend Macromedia Flash/Director presentations and all artwork to be submitted in an .EPS file format. However, we do charge a $299 initial setup fee if its not submitted in a gold glass master format. We also charge a nominal fee is there is no autorun/auto-start file submitted, and you desire the INNOVACARD to automatically launch when the client places it into his/her computer.

15. "If I reorder do I incur another setup or development fee?" No, as long as the content is the same as the initial order. We do charge nominal fees if modifications are requested.

16. "Can the INNOVACARD™ be personalized and/or sequentially numbered?" Yes, we can produce smaller lots of cards specific to individuals in your corporation; However, we do recommend keeping the INNOVACARDs artwork general and coupling it with a standard business card in the same sleeve, for a specific company contact. We can also sequentially number the INNOVACARDS or the sleeves. We recommend sequentially numbering the sleeve rather than the card, since it is more cost effective and the number is accessible while the INNOVACARD is in the drive (excellent for User Logins or Ids).

17. "What can be placed on an INNOVACARD™?" Virtually anything from your catalog to your business plan to your website (see our SUGGESTED USES).

18. "Why use an INNOVACARD™ over a traditional business card?" Traditional business cards are easily destroyed and discarded. The INNOVACARD will be retained and used repeatedly. Imagine your entire product catalog fitting into your client's wallet accessible to him/her at anytime!

19. "Why an INNOVACARD™ over other CD business cards on the market?" WorldNet 2000 was one the originators of the CD business card. Our experience is what will separate you from your competition.
