Active Media added new key-shaped USB 2.0 drives to its lineup:
Active Media Products, manufacturer of SSDs and innovative USB drives, today announced two new key shaped USB 2.0 flash drive models, dubbed the Key-3 and Key-4. Both models, in addition to AMP's earlier Key-2 model, are available now in 4GB and 8GB capacities through Amazon.com.

Specifications:
  • AMP Key-2 Key-shaped USB Drive 2.3 x 1.1 x 0.1 inches (58 x 29 x 3 mm) / 4GB $14.95 / 8GB $21.95
  • AMP Key-2 Key-shaped USB Drive 2.3 x 1.1 x 0.1 inches (58 x 29 x 3 mm) / 4GB $14.95 / 8GB $21.95
  • AMP Key-3 Key-shaped USB Drive 1.6 x 1.0 x 0.2 inches (40 x 26 x 4 mm) / 4GB $14.95 / 8GB $14.95

    "We have three distinctive styles of key shaped drives, all of which feature chrome finished metal casings. These Key drives give you a fashionable new way to carry your data." stated Active Media Products' VP of Sales, Jerry Thomson. All three water resistant Key drive models are designed using chip-on-board (COB) technology, which enables a high density, high performance drive in a shockingly thin casing that is only about 3mm thick. The sleek key shape fits on any key chain and holds an surprising amount of data - up to 2400 six megapixel photos or up to 2000 MP3 songs. These Key drives are compatible with Windows®, Linux and OS X, and USB 3.0, 2.0 and 1.1.

    the one on the left and right are copy paste from LaCie products. Get the original not the copy . Most copies are bad quality by the way.

    Looks like these designs were "borrowed" from another manufacturer. Didn't LaCie release these a year or two ago?

    Can't anyone come up with their own ideas?
