Transcend's 16GB JetFlash USB flash drive

by Thomas Ricker, posted Oct 17th 2006 at 10:25AM

In addition to that 4GB SDHC card announced earlier, Transcend is also slipping us a big ol' USB flash drive today. Their 16GB JetFlash drive shares the stylings of their 8-gigger but doubles the capacity and increases read/write times to an impressive 25/20MB/s. Yeah, as usual, Transcend is not the first to reach 16GB, but at least they've arrived. Well almost anyway, 'cause without a ship date or knowing if this drive will sneak in for under a grand we just don't know how to feel right about now. Why you gotta treat us that way Transcend, why?

The third sentence should say "at least they've arrived". =P

Tight-looking flash drive. 16 gigs is awesome.

I have a generic 4GB and Im about 90% filled up. I have another 4GB I havent touched yet, but it would be nice to be able to keep all my stuff on one stick. Badongadoodle.

Newegg right now has 1 GB pqi flash drives for $18.99 with $10 rebate (making the final price $8.99). I'd personally rather get several of those than one large drive, but that's just me. Still, I look forward to $8.99 16 GB drives in a few years.
