This review is from: Sony Micro Vault Click 4 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive with Virtual Expander and The Da Vinci Code Movie USM4GL/DVC (Personal Computers)

I picked up one of these flash drives recently at a local brick & mortar store. It was on sale for a fairly reasonable price and I wanted a digital copy of the movie. The drive itself seems to be a typical flash drive. You can click it like a pen and extend the USB connector. It is also like a pen in that the case reminds me of the plastic used in most pens. There is a notch in the base where you can loop a wrist leash onto this drive, but there isn't one provided. The drive I got was the 4GB one, which means that there is actually only 3.72GB of formatted space on the drive, and with the movie stored on the stick there is only 2.82GB of free space. Which is usually plenty of room for the stuff I tend to use a USB thumb drive for. There are instructions as to how to move the movie file to some other storage, say like your laptop hard drive, so that you can free up more space on the thumb drive but the movie will only play if it's on the flash drive. The "The Da Vinci Code" movie is the full movie, but it is presented in the full frame / pan & scan format (not wide-screen). The movie also appeared to be pretty grainy to me - but that might be because of my monitor and the settings I'm using. The movie comes with its own player software, which is very basic. You can fast-forward by using a slider control and adjust the volume.

I've got a number of flash drives - most of them are of the 4GB variety. This Sony drive isn't going to be the one that I carry around in my pocket most days. I'll probably just drop it into my laptop bag and pull it out at times to watch the movie.
