...with an implantable chip that would go in your hand or forehead that would authenticate your credstick! All right, bring on the new world order!
Seriously, it is a nice piece of hardware. The above paragraph is a JOKE! (see http://www.idchip.com/)
If they had designed the device properly (i.e. made it comply with the USB Mass Storage Class specification), it wouldn't need special drivers. It would Just Work with Mac OS 9, Mac OS X, and any other OS that had generic USB Mass Storage drivers.
It's nonsense! You buy one of these USB things to drive your data everywhere - and then to use it you need a driver! Why they didn't use USBMassstorage in the first place? Maybe they use the wrong chip.
I think its really great, but I couldnt spend 199 bucks for 64mg's when I could get a 30-40 gig external hard drive for 100 or so more. maybe it would be a little bigger but thats ok.

Gotta admit, this is an interesting doohickey. Seems to me that
such a device could be worked on a bit further and turned into a "credstick", like in the classic cyberpunk stories.
