are you kidding me? my 512 was almost the same price. my moms 2g was close to one hundred. are you confusing it with an external? my friend bought a 80g external for 80 bucks, and that sounds close to what you bought. wow. if it is a thumb drive, then you need to tell me where you got it from, cuz im starving for a double gig.

Total Posts: 692 | The only ones I have are 2 128MB ones that my dad bought for about 120 dollars each, though this was several years ago, when theses devices were extremely new. I do, however, have an external hard drive conveniently located between my two computers, which is what I now use for transferring stuff (I realize it isn't as fast, but it's harder to lose than a flash drive). |

Total Posts: 1892 | I have an old Sandisk 512MB drive... it's been ran over, bent, case broken and generally abused, but it still operates. For portable memory I use a 250GB 7200RPM USB/Firewire external drive (that or the 100GB drive in the laptop). Camera memory is both a 1 and 2GB UltraII Compact Flash cards. |

Back to flash drives.
I have a 256 Mini. Its nice because i just keep it on my key chain. Its just the right size for what i use it for.

It is much easier to suggest solutions when you know nothing about the problem. |
