 Fabulous Product October 10, 2008
I've owned my 2GB drive for about two years now. I was concerned about whether it would stand up to the beating it's been taking. I attached it to my keys, and they get thrown around a lot. But it's still going strong. I'm not geeky enough to know whether it should be reading or writing files faster, but I do know it works beautifully, even after all this time.
 Small and cheap USB flash has drawbacks June 19, 2008
This thing takes about 10 mins+ to copy a 100meg folder of 200kb files! When you first open up the drive it takes a long time to load the directory structure. The manufacturer claims that this drive can write at 3.5mb/sec (very slow for USB 2.0) -- it might peak at that speed for moving large files (like a movie) but the performance drops a lot for smaller files (like photos).
If you are planning on getting one of these, it is a tiny little archive that you can stuff into your change pouch or wallet. I use it to store little Excel and Powerpoint files or some PDFs. I would not use this to share photo albums or home videos, it's much too slow for that.
Great value and size, got runaround from seller and manufacturer though. May 18, 2008
Pros:
Great product, fits on my keychain nicely. Awesome capacity for its size, when I pull it out of my pocket people ask me what it is, and don't believe that it holds 4gb. I have purchased several of these since they're so cheap.
Cons:
Small and easy to lose.
Slow write speeds, even with the readyboost version.
One of mine broke, I contacted the seller via phone and was told that they didn't know what product I was talking about and that I should contact the manufacturer, who in turn told me to contact the seller. I pretty much just gave up after that, didn't want to deal with the runaround on a $15 flash drive.
Works for me May 3, 2008
I've only had it a month, but it fits snugly in my wallet, and works great. It's a little slow, but for the simple data transfers I do for school it's perfect.
Amazing April 21, 2008
This is a very thin and usual device. I recommend it. I usually put in my wallet, because it is thin as a coin.
