  Whoa, you're not gonna misplace that in a hurry! The title nearly needs an eye-protection/anti-glare warning! :p

  It definitely looks rather unique doesn't it.

  Good deal.

    Delivery from ow is 5 for delivery and 5 for handling. Free delivery if over 50 but handling fee remains

    if you purchase another item thats small and total cost passes $55 you get free delivery within metro areas of Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth & Geelong…

    dunno why Adelaide ain't there

      Edit: nevermind - couldn't check out, "no longer available" :(

      buy 2-3 of these:

      Lexar 8GB JumpDrive Retrax USB Drive
      LXART8GB
      Unit Price $3.32

      not sure how it even got into my cart, such a low price for 8gb seems like a mistake, but 3 of these got me over the $55 free delivery threshold, and I'll definitely use them.

  Looks like you can save the $5.45 delivery fee by adding $7 of product to your order (metro, "non-big and bulky" only).

  Gah my eyes!

  I'm guessing this has the USB controller/plug built into the drive. Can't wait till they start doing USB3 ones, then we can thwart their cunning plan and just run them off internal USB3 ports, bwahahaha.

  You can just pay the handling fee of $4.95 and pickup in store if you don't want to spend an extra $7.

    Do you still have to wait for confirmation before picking up. Says 1 - 2 days
    Never ordered from OW before

      100% agreement there. It looks like someone's poured a layer of dripping tar on top of the lovely blue sky set above the grassy green plains.

    Sony & Billabong should be embarrassed. Two second job with a roller without letting the paint dry ;-) Laughable

  I bet the reason for the price reduction was because no one was buying them due to it's hideous design.

    shmahoo on 28/05/2011 - 06:57 ¶

    or maybe the fact that USB3 versions of this thing are now or VERY soon available

      Hmm I dont think so considering the other 'plain' colours of this drive is still an additional $20.

  Harvey Norman price matched this for me today, heaps in stock at Indooroopilly. Also picked up the 16gb Toshiba usb for $19.

  Does anyone know how long they usually take to get it delivered? Ordered this drive on the 10th and it's still now at "Order received".
