Active Media Products Introduces Smallest 16GB USB Drive on the Planet

**MIG-31** · Nov 16, 2009, 08:48 AM

Active Media Products, manufacturer of SSDs and innovative USB drives, today announced the new Wink USB drive measuring merely 1.2 x 0.5 x 0.1 inches and tipping the scales at only 1/20 of an ounce. The Wink drive is available now in capacities from 2GB to 16GB.

Although it's size is small, the Wink drive's storage capacity is great. The 16GB model holds up to 5,000 MP3 songs. The Wink drive is also quite rugged. The delicate electronics are encapsulated in a waterproof COB unit, which is in turn protected by a high-impact polymer outer shell. The outer case features an embossed wink face and an eye hole for an included keychain. According to Active Media Products VP of Sales, Jerry Thomson, "We designed the Wink drive to be extremely small, yet rugged and reliable." These new drives are Windows 7 and OS X compatible. All four capacities are available today through Amazon at prices starting at $7.95.

well it says "prices start at 7.95" and there's "4 capacities" from "2 to 16gb"

so my guess is the 2gb is 7.95$ ... which is an OK price

2GB 8$
4GB 14$
8GB 25$
16GB 40$

that's the way I would see it right now. I just bought a nice 16B Patriot made out of rubber for 33$
