OCZ Mini Kart Portable USB Flash Drive-Ultra Slim
If you like memory sticks as small as possible, OCZ has got your back. The Mini-Kart USB 2 Flash Drives are only 2.8mm (0.11 inch) thin!
OCZ achieves this by flattening the USB connector to pretty much just the contacts and leaves them exposed. You can fit this in your wallet or keychain (a tiny keychain hole and keychain loop is included) without any discernable bulk.
The exposed connector is built rugged enough to withstand being in the open. No more crappy connector caps to lose and pocketable and it even comes with a blue LED status light. Sign us up.
The Mini USB FLash Drive is available now in 512mb, 1gb, and 2gb sizes.
