Especially the song.

I’m actually thinking of buying the missus a Zune, just for the sheer fact that not many people have got one in Europe. Shoot me! ;)

I tend to store documents I need a lot either on my phone or on Writely, but that can sometimes be a problem, when, for example, there’s no internet connection available.

Quite some time ago I read about this stick in a computer magazine and the reviewer was quite positive about it. At least, more positive than the other USB sticks out there (they were all sticks that used biometrics to protect the data on stored on it).

The points they found to be a plus were:

  • Flawless fingerprint recognition
  • No drivers or extra software needed to connect to hook it up to your (or any other for that matter) computer and thus not leaving a footprint

They only mentioned two drawbacks, namely the fact that it’s quite bulky and the fact that the encryption method is not known.

Let me add another drawback, its price: a staggering €249 for a mere 512 MB.

I’m quite happy with it, but after having watched the following video I must say that I prefer the iPhone to my T-Mobile branded TyTN. The hardware of the TyTN I do like a lot, it’s just that when it comes to usability the iPhone seems much more intuitive than Windows Mobile 5.

I reckon yet another battle lost by Microsoft…
