Ugh, I bought a 1 GB Kingston for my GF and immediately regretted it. The thing is so freaking slow, it's unbearable. On top of that, she ended up breaking it in about 3 weeks because it's made of cheap plastic.

Mind you, I'm sure the speed would be acceptable if I didn't already own 2 Corsair Flash Voyager GTs (1 GB and 4 GB). 18 MB/s transferring hundreds of photos vs. 2 MB/s is a huge difference when it's a 700 MB batch (40 seconds vs. 6 minutes). Best money I've ever spent on storage.

If you're just transferring small amounts of data at a time, it's fine. But then why do you need a 4 GB drive ?

If you're getting a high-capacity flash drive, I recommend getting one that uses SLC flash memory instead of the cheap, but MUCH slower and much less reliable MLC flash memory. It'll cost more, but it's well worth it on the high-capacity drives.

The OCZ Rally II series is $20 for a 4 GB drive ($4 more than the Kingston), uses an alunimum chassis instead of a flimsy plastic chassis, and uses SLC memory instead of MLC. It's not the top-grade SLC that's in the Voyager GTs, but it still beats the crap out of MLC. Expect peak read/write speeds in the 15-20 MB/s area with 5-10 MB/s read/write speeds when transferring large volumes of small files (i.e. pictures).

Nice find James.
