Yeah, I'm back from China, where I bought a 15$ 64 GB USB key. And check out the amazing speeds below, 17 MB/s write and 14 MB/s read. :wow:

Windows sees it as an "Alcor Flash Disk".

Amazing what you'll get and at what price in China.

Engadget reports one at $5000. Looks like I got myself a sweet deal.

Sony? Eh, I don't know, something about that just doesn't look like their style :p But cool never the less. You should of picked up about 20 of them and re-sold some for $30 or something ;)

Ya, you would have made a killing selling them on eBay!

Honestly, I'd say take another trip there and buy a stockpile of them. Then come back and sell them for 100 a piece or something on ebay. You'd pay your ticket back and then some.

You could probably also by a lot of electronics at discount prices, such as computer components and such.

Welcome to marketing in the whole world outside of china 101. But yeah, that's definitely what I should have done. It's definitely not Sony though, of course not legit, but hey, it works great, looks good, and most important, it's cheap. Great buy, that's for sure. I'm holding onto this one :D

I can imagine myself reading this in a year's time and thinking meh such a big fuss over such a small capacity lol.

Holy crap 64GB? Impossible! I'd try first getting 64GB of stuff on there, then brag. I haven't even heard of the 8GB's yet! but x8 the size???

You sure it's 64 gigs? I'm not doubting their pictures or anything, but it almost sounds too good to be true, even for China. You should try putting 64 gigs worth of data on the drive and then see if it actually transports to another computer.

This reminds me of the camera footage they got over in China that I saw on Fox News. It showed a street vendor (I believe) mixing paper in with the meat in the food they were selling.
