PQI’s U510 Flash Drive
PQI has recently announced the world’s slimmest flash drive in the U510. At 3mm thick, this new drive is literally the size and thickness of a credit card. While some people might think that the reduction in physical size correlates to a reduction in storage size, this is not correct - the U510 comes with a whopping 16GB of storage space. Also built into the card is a retractable USB connector. This device is both USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 compatible and works with either Windows or Mac computers. The U510 is available in three color schemes - Iron Gray, Metallic Silver, and a World Cup print. It seems that everyone is attempting to get in on the World Cup with some device that features a World Cup color scheme. No pricing or release date has been set, but we look forward to seeing this little device.

I always wonder why someone would invent a USB connected device that is thinner than the connector. What’s the use? I guess the connector can be removed from the device, but then you have a small, prone to loose connector wobbling about in your pocket…

Marco, you are incorrect. This device uses a small connector that is INTEGRATED into the card and is not detachable. Which is why it is nice to see some ingenuity on this device.
