USB drives are so commonplace that almost everyone carries one. I personally keep my Corsair Flash Voyager on my keychain (right next to my D20 holder). While it’s not too hard on the eyes, some people might look for a drive that they can really show off.
The Olinari is interesting because it is actually a necklace that houses a tiny USB flash drive. I say tiny, but the drive actually holds up to 2GB. If you for some reason lose that drive, it’s just a Sony Micro Vault USB drive, so it’s replaceable.
The cost on this thing is way too much in my opinion. For $349 I would expect something that looks a little nicer. This looks like something you’d see for sale in a gas station.

in a gas station huh? It’s too cheap for a gas station, cuz gas is like what $5 a gallon?
I think it looks good, and functional, and just cuz some of you fools can’t afford it, no need to hate on it. Just look, admire and move on.

You angry “can afford” person, there is no need for name calling like “fools”.
Calm down.
I say it is still too expensive unless those necklace are made of gold or silver.
