After seeing their website and plotting/scheming to go there, I finally got the chance. Besides, if The Suan reccomends it, then its a must go.
The thumbdrive came with a small program inside it called Imation Flash Manager which is completely useless. Once you set up your password and log in, there is no flash whatsoever. Even the green LED that blinks was not bright enough to serve as a flash. I want a thumbdrive, not a camera accessory.
Oh, hang on, I think it’s a software to manage the thunbdrive’s contents. Sure enough, once I have done that, it asks me if I wanted to partition the drive so that I can have a public and private partitions. I should have done this earlier because now, not only do I have to sit and watch all my MP3 and project files disappear as it reformatted the thumbdrive, I have to do it all over again. And its not a fun thing at 3AM in the morning. But once its done, with password protection, all my personal files are safe and its hidden too. Unless, I suspect, someone went and deleted that file, then all is lost. Still, there is the write-protect option……..

I got the DVI-to-VGA adaptor (RM18) and a new thumbdrive (RM42)

I can’t understand why some idiot would design the package to be
opened by popping the two locking lugs and then sealing the
whole damn thing. In the end, I had to find a strong pair of
scissors to cut the plastic to pieces before getting to the
product.

So, there you have it. A 1GB thumbdrive with a plastic cover and a keychain attachment.

Plug that into a WinXP PC and it immediately spoils your Hide & Seek game for the day
