    I think you'd have to make it smaller. Vinyl doesn't travel well. Perhaps if we could as a collective develop some other method of transporting recorded music. Perhaps something light that could be rolled up and played off a spool of some sort.

    @weylin: I use an electrochemical storage device with a MASSIVELY parallel access-rate and potentially limitless storage space.

    To be fair, though, teh data... It's mostly lolcatz.

    Huge music collection in the change pocket of your jeans... Hmm, it would be great if they would invent something that could carry AND play the music.

    I can see some valid uses for something like this, especially keeping a bootable OS or toolkit on one side and regular files on the other -- but just using it to divide files is silly. That's what folders are for.

    Dont ever combine work and personal stuff, just have two drives. Your employer may feel seizing the work drive is ok, and if you have your personal stuff on there as well, it then becomes THEIRS. Conversely, if you have work stuff on your personal drive, you may be violating a confidentiality agreement. Murky legal waters, so just keep it seperate to be sure.

    Too bad they look like something straight out of a Family Dollar in 1986.



    What does that sweet retro style combined with the "designer" price tag upgrade your douchebaggery to?

    So, take a set of essentially $30 sunglasses, incorporate a $10 thumb drive, and slap a "designer" (*gag me*) name on it--then give it a 500% markup. Yeah, whoever among you falls for this deserves to be fleeced.



    Oh, yeah, forgot to say that that ear piece is pretty butt ugly.

    These would be great except that Calvin Klein's design team seems to forget that people lose their sunglasses constantly.

    I think they're about a year late to market, not many idiots left willing to drop $10k on a $30 flash drive and <$10 worth of Aluminum... yes, that's right, it's made out of Aluminum, you'd figure for $10k you'd at least get silver.
