16GB Flash USB Dongle
Derek Dongle writes "This is great — Toshiba plans to bring out a limited edition 16GB USB dongle. What would you do with 16GB in your pocket? Who knows? As the writer of this story says, "It may be one of the occasional cases of: who cares? It's a 16GB USB drive that fits in your pocket and weighs 12 grams!" I'm not quite sure I want to call it a dongle. At 8x2 cm it's not the smallest thing to attach to a keychain. But at 16 GB you could keep a good bit of your life there, provided you aren't working in audio or video. I keep a 1GB stick on my keychain, which is enough for almost anything.
How about we see some more durable drives in larger sizes? Hell, I'd be willing to pay a premium for something I could rely on to take a beating.
Well, In the back of most free city papers, you can find all sorts of ads for businesses which provide the services described...
If an 8cm dongle in your pocket can be mis-identified as arousal, something is terribly wrong with either you or the woman making the comment.
No offense to anyone with a true microdongle, of course.

I want to murder the engineers who designed the flash drives that the strap attaches to the CAP. What were they thinking?

I can't help myself... with a strong rubber boot that fits snuggly around it, especially if you're active, pay a premium for something I could rely on to take a beating
