IOData?s plan to release their new 256MB USB disk that comes with a big Hello Kitty pictures embedded on the key. Well, I must say that it looks cute and will probaby make the kitty lovers go crazy with it. As for the technical specs, it?s a USB 1.0/2.0-compatible, so even if you haven?t upgrade your computer, you will still be able to use it. The storage capacity is not much though. For example, with a standard MP3 size, 4MB, you can only store 64 MP3 files on it. But what the heck, it?s a Hello Kitty anyway! (1161 clicks)
