Well everyone seems to be posting great USB flash drive deals, so I thought I'd post one I found just then while browsing the OW website for the 8gb Sandisk Cruzer Titanium found at http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/19161 , when I stumbled upon this beauty! Check out the specs!

Features
Stylish portable storage in a protective, rotating jacket.

Transfer, store, and share a vast number of data, photo, music, and video files.
Unique capless design and rotating case help protect the drive and its contents, providing an excellent combination of durability and convenience.
LED activity light which blinks during data transfer.
Convenient key hole chain.
Windows Vista, XP and Mac compatible.
2 Year limited warranty.

Stylish, portable… and it rotates??? How can you go wrong? It's great if you need to supply a small town with USB Drives. Also maybe if we look around we can find somewhere that sells it cheaper, and get it 5% less!

I wonder if they accept credit card… hmm.

    wow, never seen a post of a 'bargain' at this price range before..
    though I'm pretty sure if you are buying usb drives in bulk, you can get it cheaper at places other than Officeworks

      Nah, standard for Gold Mastercard. They didn't even offer a lower limit when I applied.

    How much would you pay for a USB 1.0 device now?
    USB 3.0 is coming out and you get left holding 1,000 of these soon to be worthless USB 2.0 drives.

    Big Ouch!

    I think its fine for single USB 2.0 drives as people will still get use out of them for a while.

    For a look at the difference in speed watch the video in the following link:
    http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/23/usb-3-0-has-a-superspeed-…
    Just 10 times faster - nothing much :)

    • atlas on 24/11/2009 - 10:24

      I thought Intel wasn't producing USB 3.0 boards until 2012?

      • Dobs on 24/11/2009 - 10:32

        That won't stop ASUS and Gigabyte from releasing them. SATA 6Gb/s and USB 3.0 Mobo's are out now.

        • teejunction on 24/11/2009 - 14:32

          Too early to adopt imo.

  • mooreshady on 24/11/2009 - 08:12

    Wow, is this the most expensive bargain? Thats so cool! I wil take it as a joke.

    But but but it's a better deal than $2 for 4GB because you can return the item if you’re not happy with it!

    LOL

    Anyone else get reminded of the scene on the Simpsons where Homer's at the hardware store trying to buy 42 bathtubs to brew his own beer?

    Homer: 42 bathtubs please!
    Hardware store guy: You know, they're 50 for $3000 today
    Homer: (angry) I said 42!
