really small hard drives

Reed recently purchased a new car stereo that had an interesting new feature which should have been included on stereos for years: a USB port. There, he is able to plug in a thumb drive or any other portable storage device. But why settle for a gig here, 256 megs there? Why not put your whole music library on a 120 gig drive and throw that in the cup holder?

It could happen. I started looking around and I found these portable drives which are not only really small, but USB powered as well. They have a one-touch backup system so you could make changes to your music library and then load it all on your hard drive in with one button. With a hard drive that's only only 1.3cm thick, could you really go wrong?
