Summary: Horrible customer service
Review: I had a 256MB JumpDrive Pro for about 6 months and it worked fine until one day I connected it to my WinXP laptop and I got an error message saying the drive needed to be formatted. I went to the website to see what I could find about this and couldn't find an answer. In fact, I couldn't find anything except links to sites that would sell me another one. I contacted live support and they were even less helpful. Their response was "sometimes faulty hardware." No reason was given as to why this would have happened, nothing about how to solve the problem, just bad hardware. I was advised to send it back (on my own dime, nonetheless) and within 7-9 business days I would have a replacement.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: No problems with my JumpDrive
Review: Well, one problem, but it was my fault: I tried to remove it from my (Mac OS X) Powerbook USB port one time while it was transferring files, and I ended up having to reformat the drive. But it worked fine before then and works fine now.

I've had it for 5 months now, so who knows, it could still do something funny next month. But up to this point it's been fine. (I can't report transfer speeds because my laptop only has USB 1.) What I like most about it is that it's very, very small and light--you put it in a pocket and don't even feel it. I love that level of convenience.
