I bought this item for a friend and he thinks that it is great.
It looks pretty cool in black and holds an amazing amount of files for it's size, which is about the same size as a small match box.
It comes with a carry case that protects it well and allows you to put it into a pocket with your house keys without damaging it.
Also the USB cable supplied is useful for using with awkward USB ports.

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars Great Product

This is a superb item.
I have just recieved mine a week ago and it is really good and easy to use. It has great preloaded software installed and can store an amazing 12gb. The case is really good and the usb cable is also really handy

Customer rating: 4 out of 5 stars Great Value. Performance speed mirrors the cost you pay.

Just received mine today.
It is indeed FAT32 formatted so you need to reformat to NTFS in order to support files larger than 4GB.

Transfer rates are surprisingly fast. To write a 698 mb file took 90s which gives a 7.8 mb/s write speed. Read speed is faster, probably in the region of 9.3 mb/s. These speeds were achieved after formatting to NTFS.

Comes with a USB lead, a cute black pouch and alphabet stickers to personalise the drive.

All in all. Pretty satisfied.
