Not mentioned anywhere in the article is the most important thing - the price.

Anyhow, I've seen things like these for years. Made by no name chinese companies. Fairly cheap too - about $10-$15.

And when the flimsy USB connector breaks off, you can give it to your kids to play with!

This Lego drive is 15€ for a 16GB model in a commercial I saw yesterday here in Finland. Not too expensive IMO.

Not cool. It should be a retractable, so you could hide a sensitive data in a 50.000 brick Lego build. :D
