    i'm considering this tiny little one and SanDisk Cruzer Micro U3, both 2GB or 4GB, the same price range, but there's a problem-like thing. the pretec's "swivel" technology vs sandisk's thumb "erected" one :p

    if someone has the i-disk, would you be so kind as to give some opinions on the durability of the pretec's idea, some photos would be nice too.

    ah and a question, can this usb connector protector be swivelled all the way to the 180 degrees position (i heard it can't and the max is 90 degrees)? what's the max one can get? you know, the photos only show the thing in a "L"-like position and i was wondering whether it can be put in an "I"-like position :D as there are a few pcs with front usb port "hidden" inside narrow yet quite long (approx. 3cm, more than 1 inch) "tunnel" and i'm afraid that both sandisk with its' width (or so it seems from the photos, i might be wrong on this) and pretec's swivelling protector would make the products unusable...

    thx for any info, photos, everything... :D
