 Good, but doesn't last April 24, 2008
Simon Guerrero (Seend Cleeve, Wiltshire United Kingdom)
Great for about a year, but then stops working most of the time. Comes up as unformatted or not at all. I think it's wear and tear on the connections. Today it took me more than 20 goes to get an XP machine to recognise it.
 fundamental design flaw with MacBook 13" March 20, 2008

The drive is absolutely fine, well-priced, compact and very speedy if you bypass the proprietary Sony compression software, yet the real design drawback is in the fact that the USB contacts are positioned really low & flat between the plastic dividers. If the contacts of your USB port stick out well enough, you are in a luck, otherwise you will have to use an extra USB adapter/hub to just get it working. Sony mention it in their manual, saying "If it does not work, use an external USB hub." MacBook 13" owners beware: it will not work as it is!
 Absolutely fantastic! November 23, 2007

Bought this product recently and I am very very impressed. It holds a great amount of data (2GB), has great inbuilt compression software that I actually think I will use and it looks cracking! Plus...its VERY tiny! Not good if you can easily use things but all I can say is that I hope I don't loose my keys that its attached to!
Very impressed!
 Solid, sturdy and attractive, and reasonably fast. October 29, 2007

(I also have the 4GB version, and it is identical except for the read/write speed which is halved)
My speed tests show, for a 1.1GB file:
Sustained write speed: 2.1MB/s
Sustained read speed: 11.5MB/s
Build quality is good, it feels solid and unlikely to bend or crack while in a wallet. It also has a nice LED that blinks during activity (I use it to see when Windows has finished writing to the device). The LED is absolutely tiny and not particularly bright because it shines through the translucent plastic exterior; which is a good thing. Anyone who has used a device that has a blinking Superbright LED, especially a blue one, will know they are very distracting, this one is certainly not.
It also came with a little a set of stickers:
* 5 pastel-coloured squares, presumably for writing on
* 5 patterned squares
* 4 circular icons: Musical note, Orange sun-icon, a yellow star on a blue background an a pink heart icon on a red background
* 5 pastel colours squares with icons of: A PC, a camera, a document (pen over paper), a musical note and a folder
And it came with a carrying case / keychain clip (made entirely from soft stretchy plastic, of the same colour as my card (green) as well as a clip which allows you to attach the carrying case to things (such as a paper document or your shirt / belt).
The compression software appears to work hassle free (no installation I noticed), but it's not something I care about or use so I can't comment further.
All in all, I'm very pleased with it.
