http://www.crunchgear.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/316DGF44opL._SS400_.jpgUSB drives keep getting smaller and smaller. For your viewing pleasure: the Wink. Advertised as the world’s smallest USB drive, it really is quite diminutive.


Ideal for attaching to a keychain or necklace, or smuggling out of a secure data facility in on your body, the Wink (http://www.activemp.com/USB_drives/wink-micro-pico-usb-flash-drive.htm) is a just solid piece of plastic with contacts on it, providing the minimal hardware required in order to connect to a USB port. Oddly though, it looks almost exactly like a Verbatim Tough-n-Tiny (http://www.crunchgear.com/2009/08/11/the-verbatim-tough-n-tiny-is-a-tough-tiny-8gb-usb-drive/).


They’re available now from your favorite retailer; the flavors it comes in are 2GB for $7.95, 4GB for $10.95, 8GB for $19.95, and 16GB for $37.95.

It would last about 2 days in my house. I would lose, swallow, throw away, step on...you get the idea.

This is the smallest i've seen, 8gb and its my brothers. got it a uni intro day thing. its pretty cool how they incorporated it into a card so u can slot it into ur wallet or something and i guess it'll be harder to lose

Damn that is pretty cool too.

I like the idea behind small USB sticks but, yeah, they'd just get lost. I have a hard enough time keeping track of the one I've got and always have :o.

I was gonna say, our 8GB one is in the 360 but, it isn't so I'm not sure where it is :S. Always a hunt on for it once it's taken out of the 360 :o. Heck I even lost a USB wireless mouse receiver :o.
