Comments about Crucial 1GB, USB Flash Drive, USB Flash Drive,:

What a cool memory stick, slim and tiny like a keyfob should be.

However, with this coolness comes a fatal flaw, weak plastic. I still have the end of the memory stick attached to my keyring along with my car keys etc. The other part, containing the USB/Memory card itself? goodness knows where it is. It snapped off at somepoint never to be seen again. Probably picked up by someone who now has some of my files. Poor design and build, I would only recommend this memory stick to someone who doesnt plan to keep it on a keyring!

I got this as an 'extra free' with crucial memory, but I feel I would much rather have had the lower price point from Crucial in the first place. Apart from that it is fine, but quite slow sometimes for no apparent reason.
