After an embarrassing incident of forgetting to bring a storage device with me when I was going to my cousin's place to copy something I decided I need to get a thumbdrive that I can carry with me everywhere I go so this doesn't happen again. So I went out and got this.

A small in size, yet big in capacity flash memory drive. And it seems like it's no slouch in the performance department too meeting Windows Vista's Readyboost Performance requirements. All this for a price of less than RM50... how far we've come in this area.

Anyway I decided I needed to keep this in my wallet's coin pouch, but the fact that it has exposed contacts means I needed some way of protecting it. A strip of duct tape and various failed experiments later I ended up with this.

A little protective sleeve for the drive, the entire drive just slips into the thing so that parts pretty well covered.

Who knows.. in a few months maybe I might be getting a 16GB or 32Gb one in this size.. and for the same price?
