new sandisk micro?

[randomlinh]

does anyone have any info on their new micro usb keychains?? I like the fact there's no need for any type of cap. I need a new one.. my blasted one broke off my keychain a while back... and finally, i have lost it. It was falling out of my pocket quite often last night... bound to happen

It looks like they modeled it after the Titanium Cruzer micro drives. I've had one of those for over a year now, and the tip mechanism is still very solid.

yeah, they have a titanium in this size as well marked as new.. but capcities up to only 2GB... this non-ti one goes up to 4GB and i'd be interested in that. I need it in a couple of weeks tho... don't see this anywhere for sale

That new one is on Backorder at Sandisk ... and it is very pricey ... around $320

it certainly reminds me of my titanium cruzer.

those are the updated mini's... and the 2GB can be had for ~$100 usually. looking for the new capless micro's. granted, that gives a good estimate on pricing.. heh... hopefully all this NAND flash price drop stuff in the news will push this down fast

I always assumed NAND flash would be fast, but to my surprise the USB drives I've used have been relatively slow.

The new Micro seems pretty awesome, I have the original and the cap does not stay on very well, though I haven't lost it yet.
