iodata2_02 Are the the kind who needs to swim in 3 feet of water with some sort of portable storage in your pocket? Well, then the 16 GB HDMC - U16ZM from Eye-O Data is perfect for you! This square-looking, rubber covered device measures approximately 2'' x 2.4'' x 0.71'' (width x depth x height), weighs 45 g and can withstand drops from up to 4 ft and being submerged in up to 3 feet (1m) of water. The built-in rubber USB cable is a neat feature, no more worrying if your thumb drive will fit in your cramped USB ports. It uses "Mach USB" transfer technology, from the poorly translated product page:

USB transfer speed technology, "Mach USB" by the onward transfer rate to speed it is possible!  File Loading time is not necessary to worry about!

Awesome! Available now for $241 (if you live in Japan).
