Slim 16GB Memory Sticks

[Tintinnabulate]

Dell just sent me one. Its unbelievable how small they are and thin. I was just thinking a month ago as to what would replace the USB and the slim usb's are amazing. I was confused when I first looked at it because the end of it is plastic. Its really good and not that expensive either.

I would rather if you don't have anything proper to say that you don't post just to increase your post count...

I didnt know :(. I haven't really bought one for ages so never really looked in to them. Oh well.

They look pretty slim but I would be worried about losing such a small device. I don't think USB will be fully replaced by something else yet, considering we now have USB 3.0.

Interesting connection we may see more of soon:

Although we won't know if that will kick off yet as its only seen on the OCZ Enyo at the moment. (I think)

How slim can it go? ;)

Yeah I have one of those tiny ones so I keep it on my keys. It's water resistant so I really don't worry about it. Go-go gadget keys.

Cool story bro.

Intel lightpeak will outdo USB at some point, standard copper connections are out, light is in.

When the sun goes out, man will be constantly transferring an mp3 back and forward to his external hard drive to keep the room lit :)

hehe

they look pretty cool, did they just give you it?? I'd defo end up loosing / breaking it though

[JACKTARD]

i doubt laptops will start coming out without the USB things in any time soon like how they couldnt take floppy disks quite quickly. Loads of devices use USB. Never seen one of those slim ones before though.

The OP chose to show an ugly-looking one. There are more attractive ones of the same size which go fine on a set of keys, in a wallet, on a necklace, on a bracelet, or countless other places without fear of losing it.

Edit: Lightpeak is fine and dandy, but it's not something we should set our hearts on too soon. USB 3.0 is go-go-go. New technology will have its day eventually.

It's amazing how flash drives have evolved. My first was a 1GB priced at about 50 pounds (160 singapore dollars at that time's exchange rate), now they're littered all around. Although, these are smaller! (http://www.liliputing.com/2009/06/buffalo-16gb-thumb-drive-might-be-the-smallest-ever.html)
