While I have maxed it's capacity (I have a bunch of videos I refer to when I'm studying for tests) I couldn't think of a more useful tool. I love my Corsair 16gb.

If I recall, the constraint wasn't size, but rather reliability. Apparently, moving parts inside a traditional hard drive are more trusted than its 'virtual' counterpart. I wonder if that line of thinking is still true even as flash memory grows. Where's the limit? There was talk at one time of computer hard drives going all-flash.

More like $130.00. Did see some 32GB for that price and below. Still, I do love my flash drive and use it constantly. May want to double check that price for the 64GB Corsair. More like $130.00.

It's a USB drive with a button on it. When you're in your car or at home and hear an interesting program, which you want to hear again, you press the button. The next time you plug the USB drive into your computer, the Radio Bookmark software opens up and there's a link to the audio of the program playing on KQED when you pressed the button. Excellent!
