Brazilian designer Marcos Breder came up with this wonderful domino-shaped flash drive idea. First off - two drives can interlock together to take the shape of a domino. Secondly, the dots on the domino actually mean something. Every white dot that shows up means 1GB of data is consumed on the drive (although that would insinuate that the drive has 9GB of storage space which is a bit of an odd number). Gotta love designers!

We’ve already taught you to not use syringes USB flash drives that you find on the street, but we know all sorts of unwanted invaders can meander on into your hard drive when you’re not looking. Enter LG’s aptly-named Vaccine USB flash drive, which comes pre-loaded with anti-virus / malware protection software and provides “real-time system monitoring and hardware scans.” Aside from making sure your rig doesn’t catch any bugs going around, it also updates itself when plugged in to an internet-connected PC. Regrettably, we’ve no idea how much these things will cost (nor if Medicare will cover), but they will be offered up in sizes ranging from 512MB to 8GB.

Just in case you missed the memo — and have subsequently wondered why the mall traffic has been just unmanageable of late — the holiday season is upon us, and there’s no better way to celebrate than by picking up one of Walletex’s newest flash drives. Granted, the firm only has Christmas and Hanukkah editions, but it is offering up a couple of motifs in each of the aforementioned flavors. The wallet-sized cards are available now in sizes ranging from 128MB to 4GB, and while you can snag one for you or a loved one for as low as $26.95, don’t expect to store too many jingles without ponying up quite a bit more.

Man - it feels like I’ve been on a USB device news binge recently. The latest is the RiData EZ Yego USB Drive which is a combination USB flash drive AND a 2 port USB hub. Nice huh? You get storage space AND you gain your lost USB port back as well as an additional USB port. Features include:
- Tie-style LEDs light independently to indicate usage status
- Capacities ranging from 1GB to 4GB
- USB 2.0 support
- Powered by USB port
- Power saving mode reduces power consumption
Nothing like a multi-function USB flash drive!

Talk about gimmicky USB drives. Check out the newly announced Apacer Technology USB 2.0 Flash Drive AH225. Yes it’s a regular USB flash drive but it also doubles as a memo stand as well as a potential fridge magnet. The key to this is the magnetic cap that comes with the AH225. With the cap on the drive, you can simply stick the flash drive onto any metallic surface. The cap also has ridges along the side that allows you to post up memos while the drive is mounted onto a wall. Yes.. I told you it was a bit gimmicky (or multi-function I suppose). The Apacer AH225 is available in 512MB/1GB/2GB and 4GB configurations.
