Pros: - The price is good
- That has a good brand
- Build Quality is amazing and it has a hide led (you'll see it just when it blinks) to show when the pen drive is in use and so you can't remove
Cons: - Extreme slowly, that's a big problem if you want to move big files because it'll take a lot of time, here to copy to pen drive 900 mb took 8 minutes.
So, if you want move big files, i don't recommend this pen drive, but for small and medium files, thats ok!!
Other Thoughts: One thing you should know before buy that is, you shouldn't expect use that for ReadyBoost Windows Vista function, that simplely don't work with this one, i guess that's because the pen drive is so slowly for increase your performance and would decrease instead!
Bottomline: This a good pen drive to travel with small files, for the price is a have to buy pen drive, maybe a big one (4 gb ones), if you need more speed, so i'd recommend you buy another one.

- works with XP/2000, Vista, and MAC
- No drive disk needed
- has a genuine sticker on it and looks real
- high-speed flash drive
- looks good

Cons: - not sure if its really a "genuine" Kingston data traveler
- the cap was a bit hard to pull off at first
Other Thoughts: - package was in Chinese but that doesn't affect anything
Bottomline: - GET IT

- it might be better to buy the 2gb one because i think its more worth it

Pros: Works - takes 1Gb and is fast!
Cons: I have doubts whether it is really a genuine Kingston. There is no preloaded software (which Kingston supposedly always has), and the unit is recognised as no-name USB mass drive (should apparently have been "Kingston (Datatraveler)"). There was no bar code to register on www.kingston.com/asia/verify. DX could not voucher for its genuineness when I asked...
Bottomline: A good USB drive, just beware that it might not be a genuine Kingston...
Great Price for 1GB
