Titanium “Liquidmetal” USB Thumbdrive [4GB]

It’s only in 2GB right now, but as soon as they upgrade to 4GB I’m getting one. I can’t stand having my current one floating around free in my pocket, and most with a keychain anchor put it on the lid rather than on the drive.

Yeah, this one looks sweet.

There's an obvious problem to putting the keychain attachment on the drive itself rather than the cap: your keys remain attached to the drive. This'd be a problem if the port is in a tight place, like the back of the computer, or if you need your keys for something else while you need the drive plugged in.

I think there's an obvious solution, too: put a secure fixture on the drive that will detach via some manipulation from your keychain. Something spring-loaded and small, like a carabiner. If you had a small carabiner permanently attached to the drive that could quickly pop off your keychain (but otherwise stay reliably attached), it'd solve the problem perfectly.
