Default USB Flashdrive Larger than 2 Gb

I was looking for one but have not found any ( Which got me thinking
.. . . is there a technical limilation on how large the flash drive can
be? Or is it more of a supply-demand cost-to-manufacture type issue?

Appreciate your comments.

No technical limitation. You can get Flash to up to 4GB and
Flash-like (micro HDD) up to 6GB, I belive.

Appreciate your comments.

Clearly not.

Clearly not that either.

This one is fine.
