We absolutely love the natural wooden treatment given to any gadget and Flashsticks (UK) makes some really cool and natural wooden pen drives. Each of these USB flash drives are made from locally hardwood wood from a renewable source. The wood is collected from the woods of Berkshire in England. This is fallen wood from the previous winter’s storms. Thus no two of these drives are similar.
So if you are fascinated by the combination of silicon chips and nature or simply want to stand out with a unique gadget connecting your notebook, FlashStick is just what you need. Fully compatible with USB 2.0 and a unique design is enough to attract me.
Currently available in a 2GB version (upgrades coming soon), this wooden Flashstick would cost you £15. And if you are lucky you can take home one of these FREE. Flashticks UK is giving away one of these cool wooden drives to a random commenter on this post. So let us know in comments below why you want this! (contest closes in 72 hours)

The hand grenade USB drive is here for you to recall those childhood memories of fake guns and bombs. The drive is a plastic cast out of a hand grenade with a trigger. The dimensions of the drive are 60mm x 30mm x 30mm and it weighs around 15g. The 4Gb dive is available in four colors – orange, white, blue and black.
Hope you don’t scare off too many people using this thing with your notebook at some public place and at worst get interrogated by the cops about this 
The drive is available for $20

Just weeks after we saw two different 128GB Flash drives here comes a 256GB one from Kingston. This little portable drive costs more than my PC and Mobilephone combined = $900! But the thought of a thumb sized drive that can hold a full 256GB is mind blasting (specially for someone like me who used to hunt for 16MB memory cards at some time to fit into a Nokia ).
The Data-traveler 300 works with Windows, Mac and Linux offering great compatibility. Now only if they could fit in some awesome security in it with a mobile connectivity on an Android? … god the possibilities are amazing (or I am just thinking a little too wild)!!

I just hate losing those flash drives and buying a new one every month. I always wished to have a flash drive that could be carried in the wallet but still big enough not to be misplaced easily. Now here is something that would answer these concerns.
The ‘credit-card-thin’ wallet flash drive has been built by company named TopTech Products. This flash drive can be easily carried in your wallet as a normal plastic card. The dimensions are 3.4-inches x 2.1-inches x 0.11-inches.
The flash drive can store upto 4Gb of data and has support for USB 2.0 on Windows, Linux and Mac platforms. Availabe in five colours – clear, gray, orange, red and blue. At $24.99 I feel its good enough.

A product of EDGE Tech Corp this 128GB flash drive retails for $389.5, thats more than $150 lesser than Kingston’s price tag of $546. DiskGO will start shipping in a weeks time by June 31st!
While the Kingston DT200 series has a more geeky look this one is an aluminum case (I certainly won’t mind that if I save $150 ).

Yes its true, worlds first 128GB USB pendrive is here! Kingston has unveiled its made to order $546 usb flash drive that can store 128 GB of data. The Kingston DataTraveler 200 lineup now doubles its maximum capacity with this latest addition. DT200 gives you good looks, massive storage, password security software with a 5yr warranty. The only thing stopping me is the price tag, I don’t really mind carrying my StoreJet. However pendrives are much more robust and resistant against crashes.

You always wish for a pill that could let you remember things and increase your memory so that you never fail in exams. Well, here is a pill that can store some memory for you but can’t help you pass exams without cheating.
The pill is a USB drive with an attached keychain. The Pill USB Drive is only a 64 Mb drive. The keychain being attached to the cap leaves you with a risk of the USB part falling off with all your 64MB worth of data. Not the smartest design, but a gizmo nevertheless.
Its available through Giftlab @ $18.

An unusual name for a pen drive – iamakey and itsakey. But the design is equally unusually. At first I thought that its a USB key for cars that would also probably work with ATM’s and has a biometric fingerprint scanner inbuilt … 
But as it turns out its just a Key shaped USB Flash drive concept from Lacie. So you can attach this to your Keychain (along with your real keys I guess) and ensure that when you lose either of them (USB or Key) – your loss is double. So the fear of this double loss might probably make you a little more attentive and would subconsciously motivate you to take better care…
However I would rather use this to fool people who want to borrow my Pendrives. I would tell them this one goes into my bike! (Apparently I have lost over 8 pendrives with people borrowing them and not returning it)

And yeah, If you really wanted to know these would cost you between $15-28 (4GB and 8GB variants in different designs. Check here)
