I like the Verbatim. It slim design made it easy to connect without a cable.

I have an MMC one which doesn't need drivers with XP or 2000 and I guess it's the same for the others. look at www.ebuyer.com and the following product codes 50920 30930 30931 30929 Or something similar Choose your format of memory. Can go for smallest or cheapest per mb. Add that to it and you got the same as one of those memory sticks and can exchange the memory. USB2 is meaningless in these memory products I think. I don't think they can even max out the old USB v1.0 standards and sticking a USB 2.0 interface there doesn't do much because it's limited by the speed the memory can be written at. |
