The first USB flash drive with a built-in, customizable LCD screen, TravelDrive ID displays up to 11 characters to designate a name for the drive, add a date, or identify the contents stored on it. The screen also shows how much storage capacity is available on the drive at any given time. The Memorex TravelDrive ID also features an ergonomic design, metallic color scheme and blue LED indicator. TravelDrive ID offers 512MB, 1GB and 2GB of portable storage. Suggested retail prices range from $79.99 to $199.99, depending on capacity. Mega TravelDrive (Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20050915/LATH049 ) Smaller than a two-inch square, the Mega TravelDrive is the smallest portable USB hard drive available, offering the most bang for your portable storage buck. Ideal for business travelers or anyone with a laptop and a ton of data to back up or transfer, the new Mega TravelDrive stores all kinds of digital files in one ultra-compact, sleek device. It is 20 percent smaller than today's pocket hard drives and features a pivoting USB connector that easily plugs into your computer's USB port even when space is tight, without requiring an extra power supply. Mega TravelDrive is available with 4GB, 6GB or 8GB of capacity. Using the 8GB Mega TravelDrive, you can store more than 16,000 digital photos; 2,400 songs in MP3 format; or tens of thousands of text files! Suggested retail prices range from $119.99 to $199.99, depending on capacity. U3 Smart Mini TravelDrive (Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20050919/LAM056 ) For the chic geek on your list, the Memorex Mini TravelDrive is about the size of a house key and offers built-in U3 support that transforms USB flash drives from simple storage devices into smart drives. In capacities ranging from 256MB to 2GB of storage, the Memorex Mini TravelDrive carries four portable U3 smart software applications that can be launched from any PC running Windows XP or 2000. In additional to storing digital photos, MP3s, video and data on the Mini TravelDrive, consumers can use the four bundled applications to take their email with them, synchronize data and preferences between two PCs, guard against computer viruses, and password protect their Mini TravelDrive.
