    now.. lets see.. how often will I wear it.. n still have the possibility of having a need to use a thumbdrive? None I think. I wouldn't wanna wear such a pendant to school.. O..

    N the heart will be like hanging on its side instead of upright.. does that still sound nice to you?

    ^ That's why it should have been a cell phone lanyard thing instead of a pendant. Ewwww.

    Looks like the Swarovski & Philips needs more marketing, since I see that no one will actually buy it :p

    An USB-stick in the form of a cell phone lanyard seem pretty big to me.
    Especially if you have a small phone :D

    ^ The whole heart and lock motif was too girly to make proper marketing possible.

    ^ Oh, not the size of those pendants. My friend has the type that doesn't have the casing, just the chip thing, so it's really tiny and they can probably design a jacket for that chip thing to protect it.

    Something of this size:

    ^ Now this is so much more manly~

    Hmm ... what kind of figurine should we put the USB-stick into?

    ^ I don't know, hmmm. Perhaps just make a casing with crystals on platings?

    lol.. its ironic that the coin you chose to use in the picture says: In God We Trust

    ^ Oh, I didn't know, to me it's just a fragging penny. Plus, it's the first pic I came across in a hurry.

    PS> Though yeah, it's kind of ironic. Though sure as hell I don't trust anything besides my own brain for data :p

    who the hell in their right mind would purhase such an item. you would get robbed and lose what ever info you store on it. plus if/when it breaks what becomes the purpose of it?

    hiake Vardøgr of da E.Twin

    ^ Well I am more concern with being robbed than it breaking down... since I have yet to really "break" any jewellery items from wear...

    But yeah, I think it has reached near-consensus that it is a silly idea and a marketing nightmare.

    Usually when 2 manufacturers come together it is succesful.
    You have:
    Nike + Apple iPod = Succes
    Intel + Microsoft = Succes
    Philips + Sara Lee = Success

    But I guess that there are exceptions
    Swarovski + Philips = Disaster?

    ^ I think so... Though I am not sure if LGxPrada is a real success or whatnot. -_-2

    The Motorola and Apple combination and the D&G and Motorola were also not that succesfull.
