EMTEC Angry Birds A106 8GB USB 2.0, Blue Bird (EKMMD8GA104)

The Easter Bunny brought me the Black Bird flash drive this year, and I started using it to backup my novels and short stories. I came looking for these on Amazon today so I could buy ALL THE OTHER birds (and a pig). I know it's dorky to say this about a silly little flash drive, but I LOVE these things! The unique designs make them easily distinguishable from all the boring grey or black rectangles that I use for boring (work-related) backups, and because the drive itself is encased in a fairly thick layer of rubbery plastic, I never worry about tossing it in my backpack or dropping it on the floor. I doubt it's indestructible, but it's pretty sturdy for normal everyday use. I was initially a little concerned that the plastic might stretch over time, loosening the grip on the drive, but it's been four months now and the fit is still as safe 'n snug as day one! I had no problems whatsoever plugging the drive into my Mac and using it straight out of the package. And now I have a different backup for every novel I'm GOING to write! If you're in the market for a reasonably-priced, easy-to-use flash drive with a little bit of levity, I recommend you give these a try :)

Soooo adorable!! But most importantly- it works! It is made out of quality material that you can feel in your hand. the bottom piece fits snuggly in the body of the bird. I have NO worries about it falling out ever. It looks great, is compact, is light weight enough on my key chain. Also, my white bird matches my car... and the color is gentle on the eyes. I have no problems with it whats so ever. I would give this as a present to someone with confidence (stocking stuffer maybe? Or present for your sibling?) So cute, definitely worth the money.

I loved it for the longest time, but sadly the little rubber hook where the string is attached just broke off. But I suppose that was because I would often hang it from a lanyard that was attached to my neck and would go running around like crazy. But I find it quite difficult to actually pull the USB out by the bottom. I feel that it's too snug. Recently the back of the USB has begun tearing as well from me trying to pull out the USB. Like I said, it might be a bit too snug. Overall though I was still elated with the quality and the price isn't bad for 8G.

I own several of these, and they work great! I've been using the same ones for years and just bought some more! Really nice!

A family member has just returned from Montana and used this flash drive to contain some of the pictures of Yellowstone and Glacier National Parks and just uploaded them to my computer..which gives me a lot of pleasure too..

He needed one for school and we gave him this for Xmas. Five months later and he hasn't lost it. He had gone through a few other generic ones earlier in the year. So, we paid a few extra bucks for this one, but it worked out long term.

What can I say? I wanted a blue bird for my friend and this little item fit the bill perfectly. I don't know much of how well it works, but it is cute and a precious gift for anyone with a computer.

This USB arrived on time and was packaged nicely. It works good and is fun to use
