Might be useful for a digital photo frame, or something of the sort. Either way, it's free :)

I'll use mine for transfering small files between my computers and devices.
Quick and easy to sign up, nice deal.
This post seem to have capture people's imagination and we're having a good time laughing at it.
surely, this is one of those deal that is so bad, it's funny.
I am curious, where are all these positive votes come from?
Votes for OP's post or comments?
Almost worth going to the epic threads section
As co-maintainer (with issh of course :))of the epic threads, I declare this to be a possibility!
My Plant power has worked. :P
added :)
free is free
quite a few people here will go to the hassle of filling in fake details to get a freebie :)
Add the plant on the list too. :P
lol
Hehe. Plant power again.
where does it say 128mb?
if it is true then it is lame
LOL
It doesn't - which is why I signed up for it. It arrived today and was only 128mb… I wouldn't have bothered if I knew at the time, but oh well
New Method:
1. Apply for 128Mb flash drive in 2011
2. Put in Time Capsule
3. Send it back along with yourself to 1989
4. Auction it on the market
5. Trade money for gold bricks
6. Diposite gold bricks in a Swiss Bank
7. Come back to the present
8. Go to the Swiss Bank and Sell the Gold
9. Profit and Enjoy your life.
:P Plant power again.
lol, are you high on plant power or something? :P
I'm consuming glucose at the moment, thanks to aerobic respiration. I am a plant afterall.
i see… right
Now, don't you dare cut me down.
very smart you know your biology!
Doing biology at the moment. Such knowledge is essential to plants
lol same here
doing enzymes, photosynthesis and something else
So issh, you are doing QCE?
yep,
doing suicide 6
Damn, my bioteacher didn't give any practise material. All we have are just notes.
Plants have mitochondria too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm doing suicide 5, all science and maths under New SACE. I really hate SACE, I prefer the old SABBSA.
I've got a feeling that the mods would soon be taking these posts off, as we have
128MB USB -> my Plant power -> QCE, SACE
:P
Good method, but the average ozbargainer is too stupid to invent a time machine. This method will help overcome that problem:
Catch 22?
I see what you did there -_-
I would not describe ozbargainer too stupid but financially challenged.
had to do a couple of minutes of reading lol
Phase 1: Collect Underpants Phase 2: ? Phase 3: Profit
Get off ya high horse people, i've seen you all jump at the oppotunity to get a free sample of shampoo or watever, dont give me the sending out details BS and stop trying to sound like educated geeks.
People aren't giving YOU any BS, and who says people here aren't educated?
I wonder what are the read & write speeds are? @deeps can you do a speed test & post back the results here. :p
That's something nobody seems to have brought up. There is some chance it's USB1.1, which means s.l.o.w.
slow is no issue for what I want it for.
awesome…. maybe they'll throw in a tape drive from a broken ass commodore 64, and a 14" monitor too!
i got no problem with freebies folks, but this is useless crap to most people and is not a bargain.
this is ozbargain, not useless junk for free dot com.
But a 5ml sample of shampoo in a satchet is fine right?
It isn't useless. I have been looking for a small capacity USB Drive for quite some time now and haven't found anywhere I can buy one. This is perfect for me.
Dont complain, its free … and I found these spare small size usb stick very uselful to bring my photos along for printing, way more than enough to hold over 100 photos … Thank you very much !!!
If it's free cat food, ozbargin would jump on it. I know last time this happened my cat loved the free food!
So +ve for this. It's almost like signing up for a free piece of plastic and metal but at least the sum of its parts is more useful…
If I plugged this into my PC, it'll pop up 'Get this sh!t out of my house'.
useless doesn't come close to describing this 'bargain'….
can be used for
Storing photos
Transferring data
….preventing paper from blowing away, picking crud out of your belly button….
This is such a funny thread… a friend of mine sent this to me for the lolz
LOL esp @ 'free sample of shampoo offer' comment by Dr.Tenma… it's funny because it's true.
Thanks, but I'll pass and let someone else have the opportunity :)
A few years ago when I was too cheap to buy a USB key I would've jumped on this (although, a few years ago I did get that free 1GB UBank USB Key). I think it's a little rude for people saying it's useless. If just transferring school/uni files (or even photos for printing as has been mentioned), this is more than ample. Not everyone needs to transfer around movies, music or even ISOs…
Well I wouldn't call it useless, but I'm not sure I want to give an address to receive ads that are a waste of paper and postage on me. Besides, I'm alright for flash sticks. So I am in fact helping you needy folks by abstaining. ;)
exactly right…. this is what I did, abstained :). Still, cant believe over 50 people voted positive on this one.
It doesnt work? Just tried the web page and coming with an error.
too late buddy
well i ordered mine i noticed it did not say on the website the size, i would be somewhat annoyed if i expected at least a 4gb or something and got that, oh well a lesson in dealing with this company i guess
It is free and it could be useful anyway… For example, if you own a router with a USB port and have DD-WRT or OpenWRT firmware running on it, you could use the flash drive for the root filesystem.
or you could spend $3 and get a few gigs (like a real bargain posted recently) :).
Yeah, I suppose. A few GB would be overkill though for router firmware and any additional packages/software you install. Only reason you'd need more room is if you wanted to use the router as a file server and/or a seedbox, in which case it'd usually make more sense to use an external HDD.
I actually need a small drive because I have something which will not support anything above 256MB, Sure you could use something bigger on it but it is very likely to corrupt files and stop working (according to others who have tried).
I suspect you could write the partition table so that it only uses the first 256MB of the memory, thus the OS will never access beyond 256MB.
You know, I never thought of that.
error 404 page not found, must have relaised it was up on this site and took it down
I just got this email…
"Thank you for subscribing to our newsletter. We have been overwhelmed with the number of subscriptions received, although you are in the first 1000 subscribers and will be receiving your free USB stick soon."
lol, i don't know if i am in it or not, i used a random email ;)
I submitted three just for fun. Hope they send it so I can store more of my plant power. :P
Thats the Broden coming out in you!
I shudder to think of
The Broden coming in you
LOL..who's gonna read this except the OP
Can I write bullshit and hope no one notices like FotherMucker
I hope no one replies and notices what I wrote..I dunno this is some sort of blog entry. I'm gonna do this with every post on it's 30th day so Mine would be the last comment ever. Hehe
Ok Now it's just weird..me talking to myself. It's like I'm in a cave and hearing my own voice. But I feel so free, probably gonna regret this a month later but what the heck.
you ok there spawnpoint? or are you just upset because somebody's been camping you?
i'm still reading this
Bah.. I just got one saying
"We have run out of USB keys but would like to offer you $15 off your next purchase"
Was going to use it for a USB Hiren's boot (albeit an older version as even that has outgrown 128mb)
In case anyone actually wants to buy something, the rest of the email is
"Simply enter the code: 15BUX11APR @ the checkout. Offer expires Friday 29th April 2011"
I got this email too.
The rep has posted the 15BUX11APR deal now.
Got the same email as well.
I got the same email too. I wonder if anyone is going to get this so called usb stick
Not a good practice.
It seems the coupon was not working @check out.
Just got my usb today! It came with a crap load of brochures and stuff on it, but a quick format fixed all that!
It is actually really sturdy!
Same here. Arrived in PO BOX just today. Has some 64mb advertisment on the drive but you can clear it by formating. The dirve size is 121MB and is USB2.0. So a good freebie overall.
PS. The letter that came along with the USB had an unstamped stamp on it. So another 60cent stamp freebie. :)
yes!
you are gonna receive it(hopefully)
i loved my lip blam! but it'll keep its value better then this drive i think!
