Conclusion:
This product looks great, is lightweight and super tiny.
It's so tiny you may forget to remove it from your pocket and
send it through a wash. I know I've done that in the past. I
find these products invaluable because they are so
convenient. In a minute you can easily transfer lots of
data. I primarily use mine for backup of my contacts, emails
and other important data. If you are like me and have a ton
of contacts and emails, you will probably need the 1GB+
version. So there's no excuse to backup when these products
exist. While this product does look great and is a solid
product that will take day-to-day use, I was disappointed
with the results. As a matter of fact, some flash drives are
double the performance!
Pros:
- Very portable
- Lightweight
- Affordable
- Easy to setup on PC/MAC
Cons:
- Slow performance for a USB2 flash drive
- Currently no 4GB version
- Plastic feels cheap
- No keychain ring included
- No security software
