/sarcasm
flash drives are nothinh new
capacity is useless without speed... if its 4x bigger but 1/4 the speed, it takes 8 times longer to do things :( (i dont fill my drives with small files, i actually use them to transfer large ones)
Also theres a downside with USB drives above 4GB - fat16 cant take more than 4GB partitions, and thats the standard for USB flash drives. you can use fat32, but that still has the limit of not being able to use files of 4GB or larger size (DVD images, HD media) meaning you need NTFS... and using NTFS messes with the hot plug abilities of the drives.
My brothers 8GB drive formatted to NTFS had issues like that, where it would crash a system or show up as 'unrecognised device' unless you plugged it in, unplugged and replugged in rapid order - otherwise it just wouldnt auto detect.
