Kangaru’s Firewire Flash Drive Trumps USB Keys for Speed

It looks like an ordinary USB key, but pay a little bit more attention and you’ll notice that it’s not a USB key at all, but a firewire flash drive. Sure, USB ports are everywhere, but when it comes to the need for speed, firewire is ideal. Unfortunately a fire flash drive like the FireWire Flash is much more expensive then its USB counterparts, but file transfers are generally much, much speedier. The 1GB FireWire Flash Drive retails for about $99, while you can find 1GB USB keys for as low as $10 online.
