    While the initial relaunch of Vanguard in its new free-to-play format seems to be going along swimmingly, players are understandably wondering what the next step for this fantasy title will be. Sony Online Entertainment came on its official forums and promised that, among other things, a small content release was on its way to the game. Due out within a week or so, this update includes a new overland raid and a mysterious new system that will tie into exploration somehow. The team is also preparing to introduce more items to the marketplace. In addition to this content update, SOE assures players that fixes for Vanguard's lag and bugs are a priority. The team's also hard at work on its 13-boss dungeon, City of Brass.

    Iocell's been known to unleash USB drives that differentiate themselves quite effectively from the masses, and the firm's latest offering is no different. The ultrathin mDrive reportedly weighs in at just three grams, is available in capacities ranging from 1GB to 4GB, and is built to withstand just about anything nature throws at it. The water-, heat-, and shock-resistant drive is just marginally larger than a penny, but can reportedly archive data up to ten years and be written to "more than one million times" before calling it quits. Additionally, the drive will support the company's Castella Builder software, which purportedly allows you to transport applications and settings from one machine to another without any hassle. Now, how do we go about keeping track of this thing?[Via AVing]
