Your argument is the same as with the lack of driver support on the Mac. It's not that Apple doesn't want it, but they don't control third party suppliers. Hardware companies are much more eager to work with Windows at its 89.6% marketshare than with OS X with its 8.9% marketshare.]]>Dec 5th 2008 11:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/Dec 4th 2008 1:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/Dec 4th 2008 1:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/Dec 4th 2008 2:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/
If someone's after your USB stick and they can bypass TrueCrypt, they would be able to bypass the hardware equivalent as well.

Plus you have more choice. Currently Sandisk forces you to use their U3 system which acts as a portable application launcher which is all tied in with the software used to utilize the hardware encryption.

If you want to run a U3 app, you have enter your password every single time.

In a TrueCrypt setup, I use PortableApps.com's portable application launcher. I can use all the apps without entering a password. When I need to access my sensitive data, I just mount the TrueCrypt partition.

More flexible than the U3 system.]]>Dec 4th 2008 2:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/Dec 4th 2008 3:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/Dec 4th 2008 1:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/Dec 4th 2008 1:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/Dec 4th 2008 2:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/Dec 4th 2008 2:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/Dec 4th 2008 2:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/sandisk-cruzer-enterprise-first-secure-usb-flash-drive-fully-co/at least it's the funnest way ever for world domination.
