A USB flash memory drive...with a built-in SD/MMC card reader. Brilliant. I'll buy just about anything that helps me lighten my load while travelling. Equip it with Kingston's new 8GB SDHC card, and you should have plenty of storage for those vacation photos. My only question: will it function as a ReadyBoost drive with Windows Vista? If I can get my hands on one I'll let you know!
