Interesting questions,i did wonder about that myself but never bothered to do a search until today and it seems there are MICRO usb sticks on sale.But they seem limited in size and variety of manufactures. Also the price per GB seems a bit high as i purchased a 64GB Sandisk ULTRA for £30 and these 8GB cost -£5.85 for 8GB
8 of these x 8= 64gb =£46.80

smallest USB drive i have ever seen, means you can always carry it with you on your keys... and seems very durable, due to it not having the metal sheild around the connection like most usb's, previously i have experienced these things get bend and no longer fit the computer.
product is brilliant value for money!
What can I say, I love the thing. I bought a sandisk titanium a year or two ago, knowing that it was indestructible and I couldn't break it. Alas after a measly 6 months i dropped it, and although it remained intact, the data had corrupted. We've all been there, loosing something important because 'something' happened to the usb stick and it has stopped working. Well this little thing stays on my car keys, gets bashed about, thrown across the room, and after all of that it hasn't let me down yet. Not to mention how tiny it is, it certainly impresses anyone who sees me use it.
The only downside is that it has to be inserted into most usb sockets upside down. But I can live with that.
Its a great little thing, hard to break, portable and 16gb is HUGE. Very impressed.
