Review: I've had the drive for several months with no problems of any kind. Today it went through the washer and the dryer. : O There is no loss of functionality nor data. Good job Memorex!

Review: The ergonomics are good - nice rubber grip, small, keychain ring. It's all downhill after that. I use You Synchronize to keep files current between my laptop at school and my G5 desktop at home. After using the Memorex I bought the SanDisk Cruzer Titanium 512MB, advertised as 3x faster than most thumb drives. Here are my results timing the read time on the same synch with the same files on my desktop with both:
Memorex=2minutes 4 seconds
SD Titanium=9.3 seconds
I guess I'm stuck with the Memorex, as it isn't the seller's fault it's a pig, but my advice is DON'T BUY IT unless speed is NO concern to you. If you don't absolutely have to have 1GB, get the Titanium.

Review: The keyring loop broke after only having the thing for two days. Luckily I was inside when it dropped off my keyring instead of in the parking lot where I might not have noticed. It did seem to work well the one time I actally had reason to use it.
