Customer Rating:      Summary: Bentley in the world of USB drives Comment: Luxury unit. It is kind of like having a Nokia 8800. it is not any faster than Titanium (even slower then Titanium Plus version) but it is a state of art. It stands out of all USB my friends own like Bentley would stand out in the Tesco's car park.
Buy it to please your eyes. And it is pretty fast!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Cruzer 8gig - super fast Comment: I am amazed how fast this usb pen is.. it's x3 times as fast as my Datatraveller.. and with 8Gig of space it will cover my needs for a good year or 2.
The Cruzer has a good mechanism for producing the usb plug and the styling in very sexy indeed.
The underside is metal but the black uppersetion is plastic. When you have to manipulate it to pull out the usb it does feel a little fragile, as if you press too hard it would move slightly inwards. But don't let this put you off.. it's a fantastic usb pen and its speed alone shoud make you buy it.
I haven't even mentioned U3 which can come in very handy.
If you don't like U3 you can remove it if you wish, just check out the U3 site.
On a side note it is about 7cm in length (with the usb section hidden) so slightly longer that the Kingston Data traveller.
