Strange Things Are Happening to USB Drives These Days

Written by Richard Blanchard on January 22nd, 2008. Posted in Flash Storage, Useless Novelty

It’s always been a gas to report on those strange USB drives floating around and I thought we had seen it all with the Spongebob drive, Biscuit drive and Star Wars Pez drives, but today I bring you yet another.

Minimoo brings us four new USB animal drives to place into our “useless novelty” category [although not useless, sure is goofy]. As the flagship product we have the USB turtle, Göran.

Next up we have Fredrick the USB gorilla, Jan the USB sheep and Maud the USB pig.

The common USB sizes are available which are 1, 2 & 4GB with prices between $43-$75.

I’ve got a brother-in-law scared to death of turtles, so I’d love to get him Göran. The look on his face when a USB turtle is sticking out his USB port would be legendary. Although probably not to funny to you.

Anyway – getting your veterinarian a “thank you” tech gift or starting your own USB animal collection would never be easier, thanks to Minimoo of course.
