I almost bought a USB flash drive stick 1GB for 50 dollars.

I finally bought a Seagate USB 5 GB for 90 dollars on the internet. It is small and very easy to carry with me. I have seen another brand that sells 10 GB flash drive for $179 dollars, but it is too much money.

If you plan to buy this brand, make that you double check because it sells two different storages that looks the same model: 2.5 GB and 5 GB.

I use this device for my digital camera to save up to 1,600 pictures, or 5 hours of digital video, or thousands of personal files. It can store up to 83 hours of digital music. It is unbelievable.
 
yea it is nice ! i wud get it if it has 40gb storage so i can watch about 8 DVDs movies when i am on travel. :)

Webexplorer, I thought you were speaking of same size of regular USB key...

Please insert the pix next time so that we would understand.

Guess what...we at the federal agency will have new computers that does not have Zip drives and 3.5" floppy disks.

My boss would not be happy if we have to order expensive USB keys....

That's nice that you got. Cool. I haven't see this one some places. It does not matter about the size as long as I care about the reasonable price. The size is: 2 3/4 inches wide x 3/4 inches height. The weight is approx. 3 ounce. I am just wondering if it allows you to bring your swiss knife to the airport.

I think that anybody have the right to bring their own small legal knife to the airport. Let's say that we get suck in the plane or a plane crashes on an unknown island. We could use the knife to do anything.

Like MacGyve an actor from Science Fiction (Jack O' Neill), and he always carries his Swiss Army knife in his TV shows. I know it sounds stupid, but it is worth it. Don't you think so?
 
I have 512 GB flashmemory USB. :)


okay, I am kidding, just 128 MB. heh heh.
