Great Bargain [Posted on 2008-01-14]
Found dealing with vendor easy and quick. Received goods on a timely basis. Would definitely consider working with them again.

Keep Looking [Posted on 2008-01-27]
I have several thumb drives. The PNY thumb drive case slips off very easilt, the cover is too easy to lose, there is no lanyard and worst of all it is so flimsy that just inserting or removing it into a USB port is likely to break the end right off. None of the others I have seem so fragile which is contrary to what they are supposed to be designed for.

8 GB and ReadyBoost is what I wanted but I should have stuck with brands I trust.

Defective and dreadful customer service [Posted on 2008-03-05]
Anything could be better!!. I live abroad and bought one in USA but it was defective. When I asked PNY for the warranty, they said I had to pay the shipping costs (international, BTW) to get it fixed, it was about US$34, and when they send it back they didn't made it properly and I had to pay custom fees (US$15). They said they would refund the money back but they didn't. At the end, I ended paying about US$170 dlls for an 8gb flash memory. Just google it and you will find how many people complain of this product and the customers service of PNY.

Great product [Posted on 2008-04-17]
Product has a great feel. For the price and memory size this is great to have.

Sorry, can't recommend it. [Posted on 2008-05-15]
Became unusable only 2 days after I started using it ("Write-protected" and "Unable to format messages", that kind of stuff...) Checked the PNY Web site, downloaded their low-level formating utility and received a msg that it only would only work on ICxxxx models (whatever that means; my suspicion is that the drives break down faster than support update the formatter) and refused to format. Attempting to contact PNY support was met with a resounding silence. A cheap enough drive, but I guess you only get what you pay for; if you're looking for a good high-capacity USB drive, you may want to look elsewhere.
