Thanks to Moore's Law we've seen flash drives (http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/09/pqi-usb-3-0-flash-drive-is-worlds-smallest-easiest-to-misplace/) grow steadily smaller (http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/15/kingmax-unveils-worlds-smallest-usb-flash-drive/) and smaller as storage capacity does exactly the opposite (http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/07/kingston-1tb-flash-drive/). To wit, the new SanDisk Ultra Fit USB 3.0 USB 3.0 storage unit is perhaps the tiniest we've witnessed yet. The company claims (http://www.sandisk.com/about-sandisk/press-room/press-releases/2015/sandisk-introduces-breakthrough-usb-30-flash-drives/)the device is smaller than a dime and the 128GB of space can store some 16 hours of 1080p video with read speeds clocking in at up to 130MB per second. Gizmodo Australia (http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2015/06/where-is-the-worlds-smallest-128gb-flash-drive-hiding-all-its-storage/) notes that this isn't the most expedient drive available, but hey, given the rather diminutive footprint it's probably pretty safe to leave permanently stuck in yourgadget of choice (http://www.engadget.com/2015/03/09/apple-boosts-macbook-line/). That minuscule size comes at a steep price though: $119 for the 128GB model -- or 1,190 dimes.
