I’ve seen a technician quickly flip out Sony’s version of a 2GB pico flash drive, but an 8GB  pico drive (?), wow (!), this is something really good!  Here’s a quick blurb from their tech page at www.supertalent.com :

Pico Series USB drives are incredibly small and stylish flash drives offering up to 8GB data storage. Pico drives feature up to 30 MB/s (200X) transfer speeds. Measuring merely 1.50”x0.50”, not only are Pico drives ideal for transporting data, digital images, and presentations, they are also the perfect accessory to adorn keychains, mobile phones, or wearing as a necklace.

Dimensions:
A: 38.7mm x 12.4mm x 3.9mm
B: 31.8mm x 18.8mm x 4.4mm
C: 31.3mm x 12.4mm x 3.4mm

Now as a regular flash drive user, I think this has a strong case for the tech-savvy.  You can literally carry a PC, with all your files, and your Open Source operating system… around your neck.  To the newbies, this means you are able to just plug in the pico drive to any PC and it can potentially boot up a new operating system for you, complete with all your proprietary system bells and whistles.

Price range for this gem is between $30-$35, US availability only.

    Now that is really very good - it’s a huge amount of storage space for the size. It also comes in at a very reasonable price point. I want one!

    If you go to AM-techonline dot com they carry these flash drives. Theres 3 different kinds and they are dirt cheap from them because they have contracts with supertalent to carry them. they arent listed yet on their site as they havent started the marketing for them but they are cheap from them and if you contact am technologies they will special order it for you! and shipping is less than a dollar. i got my 1gb for $6 and $.97 shipping! i ordered them for my whole company. also, they engrave logos at your request, min is 300 though. but they are great and we got our companies logo on them and we use them as promo items. TRY IT!
    o yea, and they are made from a titanium metal, water proof, dragon proof etc. they are unbreakable and have lifetime warranties
