U3 means portable software in your pocket (continued)

Nothing good ever comes for free, and the flaws we found while working with the Kingston U3 DataTraveler High-Speed USB 2.0 smart drive are really minor. Things will only get better as more U3-ready versions of popular software become available. We give this combo four thumbdrives out of five. Keep an eye on U3. It's got potential.

OUR RATING: 4 of 5
