Gadgets, gizmos, and tools to help make you more productive in business

I'll admit that I'm a sucker for anything that sticks into a USB port, even more so if it is USB 2.0 compatiable.  When I first saw this Lexar JumpDrive Mercury at CES I thought it was cool, but wouldn't come to market, like many things at CES.  Lexar is different.

The obviously awesome thing about this particular 1gb JumpDrive is the fact that on the outside is a display that shows how much capacity has been used.

If you only have 1 USB drive, this might not matter to you, but when you have 6 like I do (I usually know where at least 4 are) then knowing how much free space you have is important.

This obviously isn't going to change your life, but it does pave the way of the future for paper thin LCD displays going out to the general public.

Pricing for the 1gb model is around $50 at Amazon.com
