A closer look:
This product comes in three different sizes: 512MB, 1GB,
and 2GB. Currently there is no 4GB version which is a little
disappointing. Who knows, here's hoping that they might
expand the model line to include a 4GB version in the near
future. I will be looking at the 1GB version today.
There are a zillion flash drives on the market and most are USB2
and very compact. So when deciding which one to get there
are lots to choose from. But, if you are looking for
something wicked small, read on...
One thing that this flash drive has going for it that others don't, is
that its
ultra small when compared to other flash drives on the
market today. It's so compact and lightweight that it
could be easy to lose, so be sure to connect it to something
larger. While this product does look somewhat fragile, it
isn't. Even so, I would have liked to see a cap to cover the
connectors. By the way, that's a Canadian quarter pictured
along side the mini-kart, eh!
Since it's true plug and play, installation is simple and is PC and MAC (OS X) compatible.
Simply connect it into the computer's USB2 port and the
operating system will detect it as a drive. To transfer
data, just copy and paste. It also has a blue LED status
light,
which flashes when drive is accessed.
