I bought a 1gb SanDisk cruzer mini flash drive for $50 including shipping,
from Ebay. It's 2 inches long and about as thin as an ipod nano. works with
imb, works with mac, needs no installation software.....just awesome. a
coworker bought the same thing a year ago for $110. you also get 8gb flash
drives now but those babies are quite expensive.
