The cord seems a bit too long to make it a useful/comfortable flash drive to keep with me. If it were a bit shorter, I'd almost consider it. :)

OK this made me smile, but really not the type of thing I want to see voted to the top of HN.

edit:downmod for agreement?

I didn't downmod you, but I believe your post is being downmodded because it has no content.
I upmodded you (because you were at -6 and I felt bad), but please learn from this experience.

The only thing worse than a terse, content-free comment is a verbose, content-free comment.

There is tons of stuff on HN that doesn't qualify as "news". Personally, I think that's a good thing.
I think if it was the plans to make this it would be more Hacker.
Potential buyers: criminals who think they can hide their data in a pile of trash. Boyfriends who think they can hide their erotic photo collection.
And anyone who wants their USB drive accidentally thrown away...
...instead of the data falling into the wrong hands.
This will be great until someone throws it away because they think it is junk.
I can almost imagine been questioned by the police as to why I'm using a computer that appears to have been ripped out of/ away from another device.
