Heavy duty rugged flash sticks from Corsair

Corsair showed off its new rugged flash sticks at CeBIT. They are also pretty fast:

CORSAIR IS COMING out with faster USB sticks, dubbed Voyager GT. These allegedly indestructible drives are supposed to be so fast, that you can install Windows Vista Home Premium edition in a matter of minutes. Three minutes, to be precise.

After watching Vista install for ages on my Samsung Q30Plus-SSD notebook before it ran as fast as a turtle filmed in slow-mo, I happily went back to Windows XP Professional, but neither of these two installations went as fast as Corsair claims for its flash drive.
