    Erm, were you referring to the memory capacity?
    There used to be a street named after Chuck Norris, but it was changed because nobody crosses Chuck Norris and lives.

    Recieved mine today! USB not bad, just under a gig of memory, but cant get rid of an automatically read "CD drive" put on the usb, so when you plug it in, both a removable disk drive and a new cd drive appear, and the cd drive has all the economists bumf in it to try to convince you to buy more!
  • Try formatting it with Panasonic SD Formatter.

    Economist bumf? I didn't even see that as I formatted the drive immediately.

    I tried formatting it, it says I do not have those priveleges as it is read only, and I cant change that status!

    Did this and signed up to the 12 issues for £1 subscription. Got two copies of this weeks today but no memory stick? Anyone else have this problem?

    There is a flyer in today's Sunday Times. If you apply for a free copy of the Economist before the 30 August you will receive a one gigabyte memory stick. Call 0845 357 8006 and quote GEG55. Or text ECON to 60300 and they will call back.

    They will offer you another deal if you want to continue to receive it of £1 for 13 issues or a bigger saving on more issues.
