Toshiba & KingMax Memory Sticks

I was thinking about purchasing a memory stick and was looking at these two which I noticed on eBay.

The KingMax is certainly a lot smaller, though I haven’t heard of this brand before. Is it a well known brand?

The Toshiba appears to be able to store bookmarks. I suppose this would be a good feature. Is the KingMax capable of storing bookmarks?

Just wondered really if anyone had any opinions on either, or you want to suggest another type of memory stick in a similar price range…

Thanks!

Really doesn't matter too much which you go for, I heard of Kingmax before as well.

The bookmarks feature if you read the fine print implies it only works with compatible U3 software and what's on Toshiba's list I can only speculate it may just copy the history and favourites from IE over to it.

If you want a browser there is portable Firefox or mobile Firefox which is designed to run from any flash drive.

Not much in the way of advise but I have used Kingmax stuff a fair bit and never had any problems with it.

Thanks for the links I didn't know there was a portable version.
