USBee - a USB drive with a twist
By Paul F. • May 5th, 2008 • Category: Gadgets
Am I the only one who broke a USB flash drive just because it’s sticking out of the port and accidentally was hit by something? Probably not.
USBee comes to the rescue. USBee is a USB (duh) flash drive that can be twisted in any direction thanks to a flexible neck. All the circuitry is located on the back part and the wires are protected by a flexible rubber casing.
Besides being able to survive accidental hits, unlike the rigid counterparts, due to its flexibility, it can be used to easily reach that USB port that seems always out of the way or it’s partially blocked by something in front of it.
The idea is great, but there are no mentions to what sizes (in Gb) will it be available. And at the cheap prices USB drives go for these days, unless the manufacturers can make it price competitive it might find a hard time penetrating the market. And on this, not even the flexibility will help
