Super Talent Pico-C 8GB
When I first saw this excellent piece of engineering on the Internet, my response was "oh, wow!". The miniscule size is impressive, the finish is bling worthy, and the storage capacity perfect. I originally had a Pretec iTiny which I was quite fond of, until it died at the age of 3 from pesky brother syndrome. It too, was small, however so was its capacity of 256MB. So I immediately turned to Super Talents Pico-C to replace my trust flash drive!

The Specifications
Capacity: 8GB
Weight: <6g
Transfer: 30MB/s (200x) | USB 1.1/2.0
Features: Water Resistant, rugged
Data retention: 10 years
Colours: Chrome, Gold
Size: 31.3mm x 12.4mm x 3.4mm

Yes, you read correctly, this little gadget is capable of 30MB/s! Among the fastest USB drives available. Here's an image to see how small this thing really is:



And here a HD Tune benchmark to show true speeds:


Pros:
- Looks stunning!
- Very fast transfer speed
- Great build quality
- The size is great for Netbooks

Cons:
- Attracts fingerprints and dust
- The size makes it easier to lose

Overall, it's an outstanding device, and can be found for $50-$60.

I've never lost a USB, so I guess I'm extra careful.

All though it does look like it could be added to a key ring which could be handy - as long ad there is a cover for those exposed copper connectors, keys would wear it out pretty quickly otherwise.
