The Grid Tag USB Drive

Here’s another great USB drive that’s perfect for those that have a tendency to lose their USB drive.  With flash drives being so small and only getting smaller, it’s understandable that some people lose theirs on occasion.  Even those that are great about keeping track of their things, have their hectic days where the little things turn up missing.  With these USB drives, they’d stay attached to your book bag or belt and it’d never again be far from where you need it.

They’re even brightly colored to accommodate those that don’t want to be stuck with boring gray or black USB drives.  The Grid Tags would be especially great for younger students that have just started using a flash drive.  That first while when you’re trying to get used to having  a USB drive around is usually when they get lost the absolute most.  The Grid Tag USB Drives come in 1GB which is about $50 and 2GB which will cost you $70.  Unfortunately these are being sold in Japan, so for those of us in the rest of the world, they will be hard to get our hands on.

Why would you want to spend $70 on only 2GB of storage when I could go down to my local Fry’s and purchase the same capacity for $6.99. You would have to be crazy to spend that much on a thumb drive these days.

$70 for 2Gb ? Are you kidding me ?
I can find 16Gb for 50€…

Am I the only one to find it expensive ?

These are not custom USB drives Says:

[...] Published by Maria Mihale, on Feb 02 2009, in the categories: Gadgets I suppose you’re all accustomed to the crazy ideas that you can see on the Internet, due to some brilliant minds that dedicate their time to inventions that were inconceivable at some point in the past years. For example, try to think about USB drives. When they first appeared on the market, they had an insignificant silhouette that did not manage to catch the public attention, because back then the functionality was fundamental. I’m not saying that we’re becoming more and more superficial, even if we do, but if the technology is at our disposal, why not benefit the results of great efforts and unbelievable work in a design that is entirely on our liking. A couple of weeks ago I wrote an article about a cheap flash drive, called the Flash Drive Band, which was aimed to those who don’t give a damn on Swarovski-encrusted similar devices and who aren’t very good at keeping things in their property. Because, let’s face it, you’d rather lose a cheap USB drive made of plastic than a gold-plated one. Therefore, this is another suggestion for all of you who are aware of the fact that losing things is a hobby of yours. You don’t have to be ashamed, flash drives are so small (everyday smaller, to be more precise), that it’s not your fault. Not entirely. The Grid Tag USB Drives are colorful devices designed by Takuya Matsuda that you can attach to your bag, belt, book or whatever “b” word you might want to. If you’re against boring gadgets, all dressed in classic black or gray, then you should go for these colorful ones. As you can see in the picture above, these aren’t custom USB drives, and they can be yours for about $50 for the 1GB version and $70 for the 2GB one. As usual, I saved the worst for last: they are only-Japan-friendly, unfortunately! (Source: coolest-gadgets.com) [...]
