Very good, but could be smaller May 24, 2008
Everything is fine with this item, but it is not the smallest USB drive out there.

I dont normally write reviews but this thing deserves one. I washed and dryed it by accident, plugged it into the computer and it still works like a champ. Well worth the money

Sandisk updated their U3 since I first bought this and I find it is even better. Upgrade available at their website.
I mainly bought this so I could have a secure data storage while traveling internationally. What the U3 software offers is password protection of information on the drive plus Firefox browser, skype, email, etc. independent of what is on computers in internet cafes.
So I can save login information and passwords in Firefox, go to an internet cafe, and browse email or log into other websites without entering any passwords. No worry about key loggers or similar spyware. Also since Firefox is running off this drive and not the computer, it should be harder for other types of spyware to intercept information.
I have also used Skype off of it and was able to make calls while just paying for internet time. If necessary, I have Open Office on it so I can even edit Excel spreadsheets or Word documents right at the cafe and send right back.
One thing to note. Unless things have changed, the account on the computer was said to need administrator rights since it adds something to the registry like it would add for any new usb device.
However, in actual experience, even cafes that have software restricting installation or altering of the setup have not caused problems. The worst I have seen was one computer locked me out. But the attendant logged it back in and then I plugged in the drive again and it came up just fine. After that I tried the same computer a different day and it was fine.
The drive also works well for day to day syncing of computers although the built in syncing software is a little quirky. Best to just get a regular program for that.
Still works great after a year April 26, 2008
I've had a couple of these for over a year. I'd read the reviews first so I didn't expect too much from the software and I simply deleted it (easy to do) and ended up with more space. The flash drive is great and never fails me. I use one constantly between work and home. I still give it 5 stars despite not liking the software because it does exactly what I wanted it to do - saves several Gigs of data reliably and quickly and is small and goes anywhere with me.
