Portable Storage - Travelstar/Firelite

[Crellion101]

I was wondering if anyone has information on those portable external hard-drives I see at MicroCenter all the time - the Firelite palm-size hard-drive. Also while I am here in China, do you guys suggest I buy the IBM Travelstar external portable hard-drive system? They sell for like $100 at 40 gigs - comparable in size to the Firelite hard-drive at Microcenter.
