I'm thinking of purchasing an usb pocket hd... Should I or should I not???
Should I wait until the price goes down and they hold more?
Opinion please, someone that's used one...
Thanks,
Jag

Jag...i purchased a 20gb hard drive called POCKEY. It plugs into a USB port (2.0 or 1.1) and works great. It uses flash technology, so it only weighs 3 oz. I put my data on it and take it to either of my two laptops. Travels well. It cost $190 three months ago. I saw today where Circuit City is advertising an 80gb USB hard drive for $200. For me, it has been one of my smartest purchases. Sure, prices will fall...they always do. But, I needed the flexibility and mobility at that time, so I anted up. For you...that's your decision.
