Digital camera reviews of Kingmax Super Stick - 2GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive (World's Tiniest)
Digital camera Review: Unbelievably small and convenient
Summary: 4 Stars
Very cool device! I wanted something small that wouldn't weigh my key chain down even more, and this fit the bill. Fits in any USB slot, unlike some of its bigger cousins, which are too wide or thick to fit into slots next to other occupied slots.
The top of mine broke off after a few months - the section with the keychain hole in it broke off. I am not sure how that happened. The stick itself still worked, so I just ordered another and use the original as a backup.
Digital camera Review: Very good deal!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was unsure when I saw this item.... Nonetheless, I purchased it (heck for 2gig for $20 with shipping why not?) I was ever so delighted when I finely received the jump drive... So far it rocks it just, almost too small. LOL
I would recommend this item.... I might buy a couple more myself!
Digital camera Review: When you hear it's tiny, BELIEVE IT!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is thing is really small for a memory stick. but it works like a charm. reviews say it is slow, but all I can say is that it is fast enough for me. now, because of its small size, carrying it is a real challenge (who would've thought that?). it's way too small to use it with the included plastic hand strip and if you think about keeping it in your pockets, it could get lost easily. thankfully, I found a good solution to this. I put it inside the included plastic wrap and then put it inside my wallet. perfect! this thing really looks durable and has proved so, so far. a recommended buy.Digital camera Review: Wowie

Jesus, this thing is tiny--exactly what I was looking for for my keychain. I saw a friend with a 1GB model and bought myself this one merely minutes later. No longer do I have to cart around a heavy thumb flash drive, I can hook this to my keys and just forget about it! And you can't argue with that price either. Works just fine with my Intel Mac and OS X 10.4, even though it's not specified on the packaging. The only concern I could possibly have is durability, and that remain to be seen. FINALLY someone realized that nobody wants to deal with caps that you lose and sticks that are just too big to comfortably go with your keys.
UPDATE: After a few months of heavy use (classwork at the university), I have to say this guy is worth more than it's weight in gold. Fits in any USB port, stows in my wallet so it's always with me, and large enough to transfer movie files, there's nothing this guy can't do. Unfortunately, my wallet just broke and the drive fell out so now I have to buy a new one. Such is life--you shouldn't ever be putting data on a flash drive that isn't backed up somewhere anyway.
If I had to gripe, I'd say that the plastic sheath that protects the IC should probably be made of a stronger, chip-resistant material. If they could properly insulate it, replacing the plastic with metal would be ideal. As it is, I've dropped it, thrown it, walked around for months with it in my wallet and had no problem. The form-factor is a huge selling point for me, and there's nothing out there that beats this guy.
The included lanyard and chain is cheap and breaks easily. You don't want it anyway, so I don't even care. $20 for 2GB of portable, tiny flash memory. Why doesn't everyone have these embedded in their skin yet?
Digital camera Review: Yes, it's very brittle
Summary: 2 Stars
I should have read more reviews before I bought this, because after a few weeks on my keychain, the end broke off cleanly. The unit still works, so I'm going to attempt to superglue it on, but I'm disappointed.
For something that claims to be washer and dryer "safe", it's very fragile. The hole for the keychain ring should extend through the PCB, not the soft white plastic cover. I'm glad I didn't lose my data, but I'm not sure I'll trust this with anything important from here on.
