MICRODIA's Fruity USB flash drives: now in four great scents

While not nearly as lavish as Debreu's Scent Drive, MICRODIA is delivering its own set of scented flash drives for those who just can't keep their USB storage away from those nostrils. Reportedly, the USB 2.0 Fruity Flash Keys will arrive in four different flavors, so those who tend to prefer strawberry, grape, green apple, or (Engadget's personal favorite) orange should be thrilled by the selection. Each drive will supposedly be available in sizes ranging from a mere 128MB to 4GB, and while pricing and availability details aren't yet available, we'll keep our nose to the ground for any future information.

is this a joke?

No, but this is:

Two cannibals are eating a clown.
One turns to the other and says, "Does this taste funny to you?"

These kids don't know how good they have it!

When I was a kid all we had were these stickers you had to scratch!

-and when you did, it was weak and the stuff would get under your nail and give you an infection and then you'd smell like infection.

FEH!

DIY - wrap your flash drive with a fruit roll-up, then not only will it smell like the fruit, it'll taste like it, too!

Just the other day I was accosted by a ravenous pack of omnivorous wolverines...if only I had this fruity drive, I could have distracted them as I climbed the rope ladder to my awaiting escape helicopter and avoided mutilation and an estimated 9 month recovery. If only...

the obvious question:
How long does the smell last?
Will it kill me?

etc etc.

Hah. The website states:
"No fuzzy, no driver installation required except Windows 98"


At last. No Fuzzy. The last drive I bought was all Fuzzy. Great that technology is moving on!
