The Holy Bible on USB stick

Colin Dunstan · 12-08-2005, 05:20 PM

Nexxtech is going to sell a King James translation of the Holy Bible in form of a, uh, let's say curious-looking USB stick. From the official description:

This Plug and Play USB device has a retracting USB plug and includes all sixty-six books of the King James Bible in text format. Powerful search tools make it easy to quickly find any topic of interest. Features a highly detailed leather cover with gold lettering and a sturdy key ring. The ultra-compact size makes it easy to study the good book anywhere you go. Compatible with Windows based PCs only - not compatible with Mac or Windows 98. English text only.

Available in January 06 for USD $30.

[via BIOS]

If it is text format, why in the world is a Mac or Windows 98 not compatible?

Probably because for Windows 98 you need to install drivers for USB storage devices, ruining the whole plug-and-play concept.

I would wager that it probably will work fine on OS9 & X (I have no problem with USB drives on either) but they don't want to support it.

Oh and as an aside cool design. Most USB keychain drives dreadfully boring
