Super Talent uses chip-on-board (COB) technology to squeeze 8GB of Flash into an
impressively small 31.3mm x 12.4mm x 3.4mm gold plated steel case. The Pico-C Gold
is shock resistant, water resistant, and has up to 200X (30MB/sec) transfer speeds.
The Pico-C Gold includes a sturdy gold chain, and looks more like a fashion
accessory than a high performance Flash drive. 
“Is it the speed, the ruggedness, the water resistance, the incredibly tiny size or
the pure elegance that people like most in our Pico-C drive? Who knows? But, this
combination of features and style is not offered in any other terrestrial storage
device, which makes it a real craze”, commented Super Talent Marketing Director, Joe
James.
All Super Talent USB drives are backed with a lifetime warranty. The 8GB Pico-C Gold
drive, part number STU8GPCG, is available from NewBiiz and NewEgg today for under
$40.
