USB Flash Drive needed
I am tired of carrying my laptop and crossover cable everywhere just to copy some files.
i think im ready to get a USB 2 flash drive but dont have time right now to read reviews.
hopefully someone here can help me find the perfect one.
i need no less than 1gb
must be USB 2.0 for speed
ABSOLUTELY has to be able to plug into XP/2K/2003 without needing external drivers (i cannot carry another disk with just for the drivers.)
so thats it, just those 3 requirements... and obviously i would like to go over 1gb depending on price range.
please respond with links to specs if u can :)

some great responses here. i found one that i really like but dont think im gonna get it because of cost... i read about a fujifilm 1gb thumbdrive... i didnt know that the thumbdrives are limited in speed by the quality of the eeprom chip. the iomega thumbdrive was the speed champ for files over 64mb, im gonna be copying 650mb files so thats nice, the size of the drive i didnt like tho... its so big that you couldnt fit it into a doublestacked usb port if theres a mouse or keyboard in the other one.
ive never seen the ebuyer mobile disk, but im afraid to buy something from out of the country... mainly becuase of supoprt and dealing with returns or anything like that.
right now i think the transcend is looking the most promising.
wish i could find one thats really strong like a aluminum casing on it.
