They're all much of a muchness nowadays, you can probably find one a few pence cheaper if you look around. 256mb is more than enough for general documents etc.

Ebuyer always seem to have "special" deals on these sorts of kit.

Browntoa

looks ample for what you want it for, and thats a good price

Jollux

aria.co.uk were doing a special on a 512mb stick for around £11, plus delivery. mine worked out as about £16, and its very good

Amazon have a Sandisk 1GB USB 2.0 Cruzer micro flash drive - £30 and free postage. I bought one, fantastic, tiny and neat and goes on your key ring.

Have a look at the customer reviews! :T

We've recently bought the Sandisk one from Amazon and like Lulubelle are very pleased with it. It's tiny, has a big 1GB memory and is very simple to use.

Pcworld have a 256 you can collect in store for £12.21. I got a 512 from them the other day for £16, but it looks like the have now put the price up to £20.

i've just got a 1gig mp3 player off Ebay for £20 including delivery which you should also be able to use for storing files.

I just bought this one

Warning to all though. They can fail. I had tons of files on a laptop backed up by a data key. Would you believe the laptop was flooded beyonf repair and the data key failed at the same time! (not plugged in, just coincidence).

That was a tragic day :eek: :eek: :eek:
