Also if someone gets a virus (assuming the device wasn't affected)and the virus deletes most or all of someones data, they would still have it in this device. Hopefully...]]>Aug 26th 2007 8:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/
But your point is good on the artwork issue. At the very least, it helps you avoid that "This file is too big for the recycle bin, delete permanently?" message

Also, the LEDs are cool, do they stay on even if it's unplugged? Also, can you move info from one computer to another with this?]]>Aug 26th 2007 9:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/Aug 26th 2007 9:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/Aug 26th 2007 6:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/
In other words, you don't HAVE to use it for deleted files, you can just use it as any other external storage drive if you want (and given the LED buildup as it fills up, I think that's what most people would use it for).

I do hope that Bluetooth isn't the only connectivity option if they end up making this. If not too expensive compared to "normal" 250GB drives, I'd definitely buy this for the style factor. My iomega 250GB drive looks fugly as hell compared to this.]]>Aug 26th 2007 9:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/
now if it was FLASH and used battery, it might be better, but running the bluetooth connection + leds would still drain the sucker REAL fast.]]>Aug 26th 2007 10:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/Aug 26th 2007 10:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/Aug 26th 2007 11:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/Aug 26th 2007 11:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/Aug 26th 2007 11:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/Aug 26th 2007 4:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/Aug 26th 2007 5:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/Aug 26th 2007 11:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/Aug 26th 2007 3:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/Aug 26th 2007 12:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/Aug 26th 2007 12:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/Aug 26th 2007 12:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/Aug 26th 2007 1:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/26/recycle-bin-hard-drive-stores-your-deletions-mimics-a-trash-can/Any kid with 3D software likes to call themselves a "designer."
