FlashPoint ShareDrive - thumbdrive with a brain

Now this is a good idea - a USB2 thumbdrive "with a brain". Just like any other thumbdrive, this device can be plugged into a computer's USB port and used to store data. Nothing amazing - yet. The kicker is that you can also plug into a non-computer USB-capable device and copy data to and fro! Just imagine - digital camera full but no computer handy to unload some pics? Simply use your camera's USB cable and plug it into the ShareDrive. With the press of a button you can now remove images from the camera! Ditto for mobile phones. The setup appears a little fiddly since users are required to move files into specially named 'load' and 'save' directories so that the ShareDrive knows what to copy, but hey it's a lot better than the alternatives. The drive is available in sizes up to 2GB.
