Finally Enough Storageby - January 12, 2005
Pros: This thing is Great smaller than my Pocket PC and 20GB!!! It is rugged too all metal housing, no cheap plastic junk here. I will never use a thumb drive again.
Cons: Wish it had a small internal cable as opposed to the removable one. But That is very minor. Also a carrying case would be nice but hey a palm pilot case is only 10 bucks.
