Throw away your floppy disk April 30, 2003
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is a great little device. Its fast and very simple to use. You don't have to install any software all you need is a free USB port and thats it. Once you plug it in to the computer all you do is drag and drop. Althought its a little bit pricy I think it's worth it. The only draw back that I see, is that to me I feel that if I trow it around too much I might break it.
 Problems with Windows ME support April 18, 2003
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I really like the Lexar 64MB Jumpdrive. It makes it very easy to transfer files. Plugged it into my Win 2000 system at work and it was recognized immediately. Just as easy to use as a CD.
The problem (why I gave only 1 star) is when I tried to use it at home on a Windows ME system. ME would not recognize the drive and tries to update the hardware database and then locks up the system. When you use task manager to terminate the process it disables the mouse and keyboard. You only choice is a hard reboot.
Now try and contact Lexar Media's 24/7 chat technical support. Apparently they have outsourced chat support overseas. They were nice, but could not come close to understanding the problem much less solving it. They had me try several things and call them back. The suggestions didn't help and when I tried to call back I could not get the same person (even though he gave his name and told me to request him). A second person took over and said she would send an e-mail with a fix. 10 minutes later I received the e-mail. It had the same basic instructions contained in the box the Jumpdrive ships in.
Now I try to call their US 7am - 5pm phone support line (not toll-free). If all the support people are busy (as I my case) you have to leave a message on an answering machine and they will call you back, but only during business hours. I work and my personal PC is at home. How does that help?
Don't buy this product if your need Windows ME support. With Windows 2000 it's a great product. If it turns out you need technical support... well unless it's very, very simple you are out of luck.
Wonderful device April 3, 2003

This truly is a floppy replacement for me. I use my Jumpdrive to move files between my work computer (Dell Optiplex running XP Pro), my iBook (running OS/X 10.2) and my home desktop Dell (Dell Dimension running XP Home). The Jumpdrive integrates seamlessly and quickly whenever it is plugged in to the USB port. I am able to drag and drop files to the drive, as well as being able to save directly to the drive, which is assigned a drive letter in XP and a drive icon in OS/X. I have never had a data loss or corruption problem.My only complaint about the Jumpdrive is its weak plastic key loop, where a keychain is designed to be attached. The plastic is very thin and I fear I could easily loose the Jumpdrive if I attached it to my keychain. It would be far studier if Lexar used a metal ring for this one part. Otherwise the Jumpdrive line of products is excellent.
 Carry this portable drive on your keychain! February 6, 2003

Imagine being able to carry the equivalent of 44 floppy disks on your keychain or in your pocket or hanging from your beltloop. Suddenly, you feel like James Bond with some incredibly convenient device that allows you walk around with a portable computer drive that you can plug into any computer with via the USB port. I'm writing a book and in a matter of moments I had transferred all my floppys onto this 64 MB PocketFlash with such ease. I went to work, held out my fist to a co-worker and said, "Guess what I have in my hand? My book." And I opened my hand. You no longer have to carry your laptop around to bring your files home, to work or anyplace that has a computer. Simply plug in this portable drive, download your files onto it, pull it out and slip into your pocket. I have keychains that are larger than this PocketFlash. This is definitely a must-have.
