    I've just bought a SanDisk Cruzer 12Mb USB 2.0 for about £30 inc delivery and couldn't be more pleased with it. Quality seems good, and it's not let me down yet (I've only had it about a week mind!).

    I bought mine from eBuyer, and while you're there, order yourself a USB Male/Female cable if your USB ports are out of sight at the back of the desktop on the floor, like mine is. eBuyer charge about £1 for the cable, PC-World charge... well, don't ask!

    PNY on for me, been using it for ages now, dropped it many times and works a beaut. Stay away from TinyDisk ones, their lock is real flimsy and will break off inside the casing, leaving the drive locked forever.
