I have no complaints. <br />  <br /> I find the U3 capabilities of this flash drive to be very handy.  The fact that I can have portable versions of many of my favorite applications (firefox, skype, etc.) on this flash drive comes in very handy, particularly in a work-related or travel situation. <br />  <br /> It is pretty durable as well, which is a plus. <br />  <br />  <br /> This thumb drive gets a thumbs up! <br />  <br /> </div></div></div><div class="hreview"><div class="review_header"><span>Reviewed by: <span class="reviewer">bigassant</span></span> on <span class="dtreviewed">07-Jun-06</span><span class="rating_container"> <b>Rating:</b><span class="rating"> <img src="http://i.pgcdn.com/images/rating_4_newr.gif" style="height:11px; width=60px; border:none;" alt="4 Star Review" /></span></span></div><div class="description"><div class="strengths"><b>Strengths:</b>Decent storage space.  More features than a standard flash drive</div><div class="weaknesses"><b>Weaknesses:</b>Could use more built-in applications to take advantage of U3 capability</div><div class="summary"> <b>Summary:</b>Overall, the U3 drive is a nice concept.  Rather than just storing only data on your flash drive, U3 drives allow you to install applications onto them.  The advantage of this is that you can carry applications (e.g. web browsers, email clients, etc) on your flash drive and use them on different computers even if those systems do not have a web browser or your preferred email client installed. <br />  <br /> This feature is certainly handy, although probably not revolutionary for most.  The U3 interface (which resembles a mini Windows \"Start\" menu) is easy to use. <br />  <br /> Load times are acceptable (except my system is not USB 2, which explains why things aren\'t faster).  I would like to have seen more u3 applications included with this item.  In particular, an email client and/or a file sync tool would have been appreciated</div></div></div><div class="hreview"><div class="review_header"><span>Reviewed by: <span class="reviewer">MADMOMMABEAR2</span></span> on <span class="dtreviewed">27-Apr-06</span><span class="rating_container"> <b>Rating:</b><span class="rating"> <img src="http://i.pgcdn.com/images/rating_5_newr.gif" style="height:11px; width=60px; border:none;" alt="5 Star Review" /></span></span></div><div class="description"><div class="strengths"><b>Strengths:</b>Price, U3</div><div class="weaknesses"><b>Weaknesses:</b>none so far</div><div class="summary"> <b>Summary:</b>I have had this drive for about 3 weeks now and I think it is one of the best that I have ever had.  I haven\'t used the U3 applications yet since I mainly got this just for storage, so I can\'t really comment on their function, but just having them is a plus in my opinion.  I think the file transfer speed is excellent and haven\'t had any problems with the drive so far.</div></div></div><div class="hreview"><div class="review_header"><span>Reviewed by: <span class="reviewer">cooldv</span></span> on <span class="dtreviewed">21-Apr-06</span><span class="rating_container"> <b>Rating:</b><span class="rating"> <img src="http://i.pgcdn.com/images/rating_2_newr.gif" style="height:11px; width=60px; border:none;" alt="2 Star Review" /></span></span></div><div class="description"><div class="strengths"><b>Strengths:</b>Easy plug and play device.

If you plan to use a USB Flash drive on a Win 98 machine, do NOT buy this drive. The manufacturer doesn\'t supply drivers for Win 98.<br />[[[*** you may get Generic USB drivers for Win 98 on the internet by searching for - \"Installing USB Mass Storage Devices on Windows 98\" in the msn search engine. These drivers have done wonderfully for my 2 other USB generic no brand name Flash drives. Problem comes in the connection between the USB port and the Drive. it is hit or miss, and for Verbatim Store n go, it was a miss.]]]<br /><br />2. good drive for use if you want it for drag and drop storage function. U3 software is an accessory plus that is not a must to use.<br /><br />3. it is little thicker and wider than some other flash drives, so connection to USB port may be an issue if there are other USB devices in close proximity.<br /><br />4. Would have been better with a write protect switch.<br /><br />5. On my next purchase, I would buy a Flash Drive whose manufacturer supplies Drivers for Win 98 also.<br /><br />6. long term durability of this product is ???</div></div></div><div class="hreview"><div class="review_header"><span>Reviewed by: <span class="reviewer">Anonymous</span></span> on <span class="dtreviewed">14-Apr-06</span><span class="rating_container"> <b>Rating:</b><span class="rating"> <img src="http://i.pgcdn.com/images/rating_5_newr.gif" style="height:11px; width=60px; border:none;" alt="5 Star Review" /></span></span></div><div class="description"><div class="strengths"><b>Strengths:</b>The U3 Launchpad makes it simple to run *my* applications with *my* data on any Windows 2000 or XP PC.</div><div class="weaknesses"><b>Weaknesses:</b>Although U3 applications are limited as of this writing, software developers are starting to jump on the U3 bandwagon.</div><div class="summary"> <b>Summary:</b>I love this little thumb drive, I use it every day.

It is very useful for carrying around some frequently used applications - like your email settings(Thunderbird), your bookmarks (firefox) etc. The password protect facility on the drive is quite useful as well. With a password set when you plug in the drive you are prompted to enter your password before you can access anything. <br /><br />That said there are some disadvantages. The concept behind U3 seems to be slow in picking up. There are not all that many applications available and new ones are quite slow to come up as well.But still even the existing set of applications make this a very useful piece of hardware to carry around.<br /><br />Verbatim\'s website provides about five U3 applications now for this drive. You have to go to verbatim\'s dedicated website - www.verbatim.com/u3/... and enter the serial number of your drive to be eligible to download these.<br /><br />The applications you download and install take quite a bit of the available space. If you are planning on using this primarily to store files exercise some caution on what applications you want to install. </div></div></div><div class="hreview"><div class="review_header"><span>Reviewed by: <span class="reviewer">tiffanyvu</span></span> on <span class="dtreviewed">28-Apr-06</span><span class="rating_container"> <b>Rating:</b><span class="rating"> <img src="http://i.pgcdn.com/images/rating_5_newr.gif" style="height:11px; width=60px; border:none;" alt="5 Star Review" /></span></span></div><div class="description"><div class="strengths"><b>Strengths:</b>Comes with free antivirus and the U3 platform.
