Summary: Cool Cruzer
Comment: This memory stick has everything you could ever require from such an item and is at a bargain price! 8GB of storage and physically extremely compact, especially for its capacity. Hard wearing, protective rubber casing and stylish design including key/string hook. Comes complete with a place to write your name.
Only problem - The cap does not fit on the back when its in use so there is a chance you could lose it but otherwise no problems, However unlike some other drives, the lid over the usb plug stays securely fastened.
For the price its one of the best memory stucks you can buy.

Summary: good value works well
Comment: I wasn't to sure about this when i looked at it but at the price i went with it, and it paid off. This works well with both apple and windows and works with our Philips DVD player.
It is nice and small with plenty of space.

Summary: Withstands washing machines!
Comment: I should probably say first that i haven't bought this yet, but have every intention too (unless i get it for christmas!)because I bought the 1gb version last year and it's a the most reliable piece of tech i've ever bought.
This babys been throught the washing machine three times. 3 times!
Gawd knows how many times of left it somewhere and its been bashed around and got dusty, but still works perfectly!
It's smaller than a standard usb drive as well! And lights up pretty green at the end (or flashes orange when it's doing stuff), great little thing.

Summary: Very large storage and good speed
Comment: This is a great memory stick.
When I opened mine I was surprised how small it was and yet it felt quite solid. It's sheathed in clear plastic as a protective cover which can be slid off to reveal the device's very tiny size - is there really 8gb in there?!?!?! Fanatastic!
I thought at first glance 'Oh, it would have been nice to have had some kind of LED activity indicator' and went ahead and plugged it into my machine. Lo and behold the keyring loop area of the device lit-up! Nice. The unit flashes red to indicate activity and gently brightens and dims to indicate no data being transfered. It might annoy some people after a while I guess but I thought it was a cool touch. See how I feel after a few hours.
A quick test of the stick's speed went as follows:
2 gigs (2.07 gigs to be precise) of large zip files from computer to card in 3 mins 45 seconds.
The same stuff transferred back in 1 min 26 seconds.
Write speed around: 9.2 MB sec
Read speed around: 24 MB sec from the figures above.
They are some pretty handy numbers. I guess you could fill the card in around 15 minutes.
Only minus is that I reckon its size makes it easy to lose but theres no way I'm knocking points off for that - just a heads up to keep an eye on it!

Summary: Reasonable mid range USB flash key
Comment: As mentioned in other reviews, the end of this USB key glows a red/orange colour and is very bright (and the pulsing when active becomes annoying). Dimensions (including USB connector) are 19mm x 7mm x 54mm for the Width x Height x Depth. Removing the plastic sleeve reduces these a tiny bit.
The speed of the device is roughly 21Mbytes/second when reading and a lower 6Mbytes/second when writing. This seems reasonable for a product of this price and size (but if you are willing to pay more for a bulkier unit you can get USB flash keys that have write speeds of 18-30Mbytes/second).
