Buffalo Packs 16 GB in Nail-Sized USB Drive

Buffalo announced a new USB flash drive that pushes the limits of how small these drives can get, giving similarly sized flash-storage cards a challenge. The Buffalo RUF2-PS packs up to 16 GB of data in 18 (W) x 18 (H) x 8 (D) mm, and comes in variants of 2, 4, 8, and 16 GB. It is truly feather-weight at 3 g. The drive is so compact that the a couple of these could stay latched on to a notebook even when carrying it around. It uses a standard USB 2.0 interface. Its transfer rates or availability haven't surfaced.

cool - its physically almost identical to the Nano Bluetooth USB adapter I got on ebay for £3 when I needed to bluetooth up my PC so it could speak to my phone.

My first PC had a 540MB HDD :o

Awesome. Where can I buy it, though? Even previous versions are impossible to find online.

What an excellent way to use spare usb-ports, bet they're gonna be impossible to get hold of though. Oh and I would probably lose it before i even get to plug it in :)
