    Quite nice really.. although it does state:
    Note: the Kaspersky Antivirus software preloaded in the USB drive may be displayed in Chinese Language

    Still quite a nice little addition.

    Oh, and a 1GB version is also available here for €6.22.

    Nice deal, Chinese Kaspersky, handy! :rolleyes:

    No joking aside this looks cool in steel, like some of those male jewellery ID tag things. Coolest looking USB stick I've seen anyway, thanks for posting.

    I'm reading some of the reviews! They're funny, stuff like...... I can't remove the Kapersky AV, can't format drive, KAV is on a protected partition, it's not USB 2 etc... etc... I doubt it's not USB2, is anyone making USB 1 drives anymore? As for the formatting there's an easy solution; if all else fails just plug it in, boot into Linux (or use a Linux Live CD) and format.

    Had a bad experience with dealextreme when ordering USB drives. Stuff never arrived 6 weeks after I ordered. Delivery is so so slow, if you need the drive before May then I'd suggest ordering elsewhere...

    This is getting scary, this drive is so slim, you could actually wear it: Transend Super Mini. Will we all end up with RFID tags and these USB drives around our necks with our life histories stored inside? Then all the data could be remotely accessed via RFID in a millisecond! Spooky!

    The code BULKRATE is meant to get you a discount of some sort if you order 3+ I think.

    Found Kaspersky to be one of the more thorough AV's myself!

    Saw this but not too sure about it.. I read in some cases it brings up the price of the product you're ordering! :D

    The user 'investments' over at HotUKDeals says this:
    These are $1.90 each.

    If you buy 3 and use the bulk discount offer you will actually PAY MORE for this item than you would if you didnt use the voucher.

    $1.90 x 3 = $5.70 + Free shipping

    Use the promo code BULKRATE on three items and your basket value becomes $6.24. MORE THAN NORMAL. This is because by using the BULKRATE voucher it initiates a mandatory $1.70 Package Tracking Service fee. So although you save $1.46 you are charged $1.70. (not much but it's the principle of the matter)

    SO if you want 1 or 2 of these just buy 1 or 2 (as the code only works for 3+). If you want only 3 then just buy normal without the code. If you want more than 3 then use the code as for 4 units + it does work out cheaper.
