The SnowDrive USB Flash Drive by ACP-EP is shaped like a mini-snowboard, and opens up to become a USB 2.0 drive. The graphics on the skateboard mimic skateboards used/made by real professionals. This was accomplished by alliances with various companies that deal with skateboards and their designs.
You can get an “Eddie Wall 1GB” drive, a “Recon 512MB” drive, or a Recon drive with 2 Gigs. A neckstrap is included, along with a 2 year warranty (pretty long for a USB key). This is for the true snowboarder who loves computers!
I myself don’t snowboard, nor do I use USB keys often, so I don’t think I will find myself paying a premium for a USB key like this. I do, however, like that ACP-EP did not compromise features for design, as the drive is USB 2.0 as noted above, and it works on Windows software and Mac software.

yeah, although they look cool and are portable and neat, they’re absolutely worthless.
NeutralIf you carry a flash drive around with you for work, school, or other “keep-it-on-you” needs, it’s just a hastle.
The cap doesn’t have anything to secure it and it falls off easily, the finish starts to wear, and most importantly, it just stops working. I’ve fried two different drives on two different computers on two different occasions, and losing all your data is no fun at all… the price has gone down since they first came out, so just invest in something better.
