Since when is transformers sacred?! I too am a fan of the old school cartoon series, but there's no reason it should cost that much. Takara toys basically began transformers, so they're not paying someone else for the rights, it's pure profit – they're charging you for nostalgia. Besides, just how good of a USB drive can it be if it's made by a toy company? Yes, I still want one, but not for $42.99!
For those looking for a device strictly for reading, the new Kobo is a nice little option. It's small enough to slip into a pocket, can do more with a PDF than the competition, and at $129, it's $10 cheaper than both the Nook and Kindle WiFi.
