This product generatesa lot of attention. I like this one very much and looks very cool and very handy. It is very small when compared with other products in the market for a similar kind. The bright red LED is kinda OK. Ball point pen is very handy, though the quality of the tip is not very good.

A USB storage device is a generic item available from many, many makers. This one does the same thing as the others, yet costs considerably more than even some famous brands as you can see on the website called "price watch". The other features included don't go particularly well with a USB drive -- they are unrelated.

The interesting thing with this device is the race: will the pen run out of ink before or after the 128 MB drive is considered obsolete technology?

This piece is really quite over-priced for what you get, though not having the knife allows you to bring this on a plane with you. I've seen this unit marketed elsewhere as a "travel-friendly" Swiss Army tool (not knife).

Nevertheless, the unit I have is the 64MB version of:
ASIN: B0002VM8ZM
...which costs considerably less (~$30) on Amazon, has the same 128MB USB drive and red light as the unit on this page, plus you get a small quantity of Swiss Army tools INCLUDING a knife. Unless you are concerned about going on a plane, I'd recommend the ASIN: B0002VM8ZM over the unit on this page. BTW, I got my handy little 64MB unit (which I'd give four stars for if I had the option) for only $9.99 on clearance at Target.

Good package, and the Air travel includes a soft to login and access to information.

Maybe I should read the description better, but I was disapointed to find out, when receiving it, that this is JUST a USB Key with a pen and anemic led light.

No "swiss army stuff". Not even a knife. I thought all swiss army knives are supposed to have, you know, a knife?

That said, the USB key is very tiny, almost too small on its own (detached from the swiss army non-knife housing), so it's good it has a "home" within the casing, otherwise it would probably go missing.
