New 4GB Flash Drive Packs Quite a Punch

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the now-even-easier-to-lose-with-your-keys dept.

PCPro has a neat little tidbit about a new flash drive from Corsair. This little drive, only half the size of a lighter, packs a punch with 4GB of data storage and a very reasonable price tag (approx $32 USD). "When a Corsair rep turned up at Dennis Towers yesterday he told us he'd brought something pretty special to show off. We were therefore distinctly underwhelmed when he said it was ... a flash drive. But this flash drive needs seeing to be believed. It's been passed all round the office, where it's invariably been greeted with ooohs and aaaahs of grinning appreciation."

    A tiny flash drive? Honestly?

      Hell, even those uncontacted natives in the remote amazon wilderness were unimpressed.

      These aren't the 'roids you're looking for.

      Yeah, this is a truly weak excuse for a story.

      I just bought an 8 Gig drive for $39 USD, so the price isn't amazing. No MP3 player or slot for an SD card, nothing really technologically innovative...

      We need an actual "products review" section (products.slashdot.org) in order to filter out such stories when you're not in a shopping mood.
