Crosair Flash Voyager Mini - 4GB rubberized USB flash drive

Wed, 18 Jun 2008 02:00:00 +0100

The Flash Voyager Mini is enclosed in all-rubber housing to protect valuable data against severe temperature, moisture, or physical abuse.

The Flash Voyager Mini is ultra-sleek, 1/3 the size of regular USB drives, with a weight of only 5.4 grams -- as light as a piece of gum and it also features Unique Cap-Less Connector Plug with COB Technology.

To create the smallest drive possible, the Corsair Flash Voyager Mini utilizes a unique cap-less retractable connector plug, which easily opens with the flick of the thumb. Corsair achieved this ultra-compact design by using the latest Chip-on-Board (COB) technology, which allows the entire USB connector to be easily retracted into the drive. This not only makes the drive smaller, but it also prevents damage caused by life’s inevitable mishaps. In addition, the drive’s ergonomically shaped rubber housing makes it easy to connect and disconnect from any computer.

The 4GB Corsair Flash Voyager Mini is priced at $29.99.

The good thing about Corsair products is that they are backed by a 10-year Limited Warranty.

USB Personal Massager

Thu, 27 Jul 2006 01:00:00 +0100

USB Personal Massager - Instant stress relief from your computer

Ridiculous, you say? Perhaps you’ll feel differently with the USB Vibe Massager on your neck or shoulders.

The oscillating head vibrates 60 times per second, with a tough rubber dimpled surface focusing relief to pressure centers. The 6 ½ foot cable is useful for reaching tender surfaces like the soles of your feet and other hard to get to pain-spots on that long plane-ride.

It doesn’t compare with a professional shiatsu massage, but for $4.99, you can’t beat the price!
