Strengths: Capacity,, compression software, price
Weaknesses: Feels pretty cheap, compression utility does not support encryption.
Summary: This flash drive built of cheap (but durable) plastic.

Virtual expander software utility is nice addition to automate compression/decompression of the files moving between USB drive and PC, but software has no options/preferences - like password encryption etc.

As everything branded SONY in current world - their low end electronics built OK but not the greatest as it was 10 years ago.

So in general, average USB drive doing it's job.

3 Star ReviewSony 8GB USB Flash
Strengths: Built-in compression software, the Look
Weaknesses: No strap supplied, Feels loose construction, Cost
Summary: 2008-09-28 09:01:00 From the outside pack it looks great. Once I opened the pack, the first bad impression is the construction. If you shake little bit, you can hear loose joint noise. Also the picture shows how to link with strap, but I was surprised that no strap was provided.

The pen type operation is a good idea. The light glows when connected and is very bright. The compression software comes with the drive.

Overall it is not that great for the price. I would suggest to wait to come down in price.

Strengths: portable, no lost caps,
Weaknesses: not water resistant
Summary: They work really great. The click design means no more lost caps to worry with. It is also very compact and very portable so you can take it with you almost any where.
