Supertalent has been making drives smaller than that for at least two years. Last year they got them up to 32GB capacity. Of course, only the 16GB is available in Canada, who gets everything last, worst and at a higher cost.

Hope they keep making the bigger ones. Like SONY's current CLIC drives - that have a slide-cover that works great. I can feel those when its in my pockets. TINY ones beg to be lost... but they do have a place for some people.

Err...
I've been using it for months already...
It's been available in the Malaysian market since early this year...

[citation][nom]peterkidd[/nom]I HATE U3. The idea is cool, but it is propriety crapware that runs so slow.[/citation]
I agree, but I like their drives, so I uninstall the U3 and format it! Using one as my W7 install backup.

The usb card reader for my micro SD card is much smaller than that. It doesn't even have the metal frame part of the connector, just the pin part. Also, what ncarlson said.

how is this news, because it's SanDisk? Pqi, Transcend, and many others have already released such small usb drives a long time ago.

[citation][nom]ncarlson[/nom]And that's "impressive"???16GB NEON InnoDisk Plug-and-Forget USB2.0 Flash Drive[/citation]

I was thinking about that one too. If I was concerned about the physical size for a netbook this is what I'd want. You can still remove it but it barely sticks out. Oh and it's cheaper than Sandisk! :)

I bought one of these from Newegg a couple months ago - 4GB. Tiny AND useful! I wouldn't consider this breaking news, however...
