WARNING: Your data will be erased!!.......2007-12-29
Warning: Don't install the "update" because it will erase all of your data! I have been using the Cruzer thumb drive for some time. I have never liked it because it installs software on my computer without my permission (is that legal?). I usually have other copies of the data on my thumb drive, but recently a hard drive failed at work so I used my SanDisk thumb drive to back up some important data. Then today when I plugged the thumb drive into my desktop at home, I was prompted to update the software (called LaunchPad I think). I clicked OK. I was looking for some kind of warning to back up data or close all programs or whatever (as is standard). I didn't see any warnings -- just a license agreement. I clicked OK on the license agreement. It immediately started the "update," but the status said "formatting drive." I tried to not freak out. Surely they would not be deleting all of my data with no warning? Surely they could not be reformatting the drive? There is software on there! But when the "update" was complete, I checked and sure enough, the drive was entirely wiped clean! All my files, folders, programs -- everything. GONE! WITH NO WARNING! I couldn't believe it! Is it legal to do this? If it is, it shouldn't be! This is outrageous! I didn't have any other copy of a lot of that data! I called SanDisk, they immediately knew what I was talking about (I'm sure this is happening to lots of other people). They refused to take financial or legal responsibility for their actions. They didn't care about my lost data. No apology. All they would do is refer me to a company, LC Technologies, for data recovery. And get this, they are "partnering" with LC Technologies to offer a "discount" on data recovery. They even have a big link with a special discount code on the Support page for this thumb drive (but no warning about having your data hosed if you install the update). I'll bet you that they are getting a kickback from LC Technologies for sending so much business their way. How evil is that!?!? Not only is SanDisk deliberately deleting data, and not taking responsibility, they are benefitting from it financially at well! This is truly wrong, truly outrageous. I'm going to try to find a class action lawsuit to join.
PLEASE, do yourself a favor, DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!
Work-horse.......2007-12-18
For those new to U3 this chip is awesome. I can carry my applications and all my work on this chip and can work with it on virtually any PC. The password protection is especially good in case it gets lost or stollen.
Great Flash Drive.......2007-12-12
I really shopped online before settling on this drive. Its a great price for a good & large capacity drive. As a student I need plenty of capacity at a good price. Plus I always know I'm going to find a good price and can count on the good service here at Amazon.com. Thanks!
Works great also WITH VISTA.......2007-12-03
Only want to say that my SanDisk 4GB Cruzer (bought it today at Circuit City) is vista ready and works fine with it.
So, if you use Vista make sure you get a newer one. I think the solved the problems with Vista.
Also I don't have any problems with the U3. I think it's a real good feature.
Ready Boost works fine too!
As an addition: On my package there was a label calling "enhanced for Windows ReadyBoost"
So if you use Windows Vista make sure you got a drive with this label than you will have no problems.
A Waste Of Money.......2007-12-02
I bought this on sale at Best Buy for $30.00 The information on the disk made it seem as though you could use it for software on different computers. I bought it for my Hallmark card software. Simplicity? I think not. With 4 GB of space I was sure that the card software would work from this drive. NOT. It seems that only U3 programs work with this so called "travel disk". Wish I'd never wasted my money on it. I wish I would have known about the U3 issue. I thought it was a 4 GB drive that I could use with ANY software. It hangs up my brand new VISTA computers (desktop AND laptop.

SanDisk.......2007-12-29
Great product, and the transaction went down smoothly, got the product really quick
Thanks!
U3 not for me.......2007-12-27
I am a loyal SanDisk user, but the U3 software that comes on this drive isn't for me and I sent it back. To cumbersome, and even though I found instructions and download, I couldn't remove or disable the software. I like things simple, and his item didn't meet my needs and I sent it back. It is a fast drive, and I could transfer files quickly, but there is no need to add 3-4 mouse additional clicks to install or remove a drive.
SanDisk--please make a 2+ GB Flash drive without U3!

OK product.......2007-12-27
the flash memory itself seems to be OK, but than again there is no real way of telling in advance, since by definition flash memory is a very reliable product. the main differences between the manufacturers are the outer cover and/software. with this product, the plastic shell fills cheap, and retrospecting, I would have added the additional 7$ or so and get the titanium model. at least there is a 2 year warranty. the U3 software is really nice, and actually upgrades the unit from simple storage level to an almost portable PC. I only wish that there would be a free U3 anti virus. this is a basic tool on this kind of product (helping friends and family recovering their PC and so on). there is a free portable anti virus (clamshell), but it is not U3 compatible.
sandisk 4 gb cruzer micro.......2007-12-24
Great product, very portable and password protected. Many extra features such as games. Excellent for the price
Seems flimsy but works okay........2007-12-24
Pros--4gb gives lots of room, the u3 lets me run my bookcollector/libray software on multiple computers so I can track my many books at work and home, including those I lend to other folk. No cap to lose is great.
Cons--nothing serious so far. The thing's a bit flimsy feeling, but has not broken, seems to be mostly plastic, but oddly, that makes me treat it gently so I probably will not break it. No lanyard comes with it, but there's a ring to slip one through if you feel the need.
Overall, it's good enough that I'm considering getting the 8gb size soon.
Product Description
iSkin have taken their excellent and popular eVo2 case and redesigned it for the new 4G Clickwheel iPod (40GB) - with more protection and more functionality, the eVo is the ultimate iPod 4th Generation (4G) protection device. Also fits the iPod Photo 40 + 60GB!
The iSkin eVo includes an improved screen protector that has four mini soft mounts that grip to the iPods surface and keeps the protector elevated. Once placed over the screen, the protector acts a barrier against objects coming in contact with your iPod's screen.
Many iSkin customers want to use their favoritetop mounting iPod accessories with their iSkin. So we made it possible to plug devices like the iTrip and NaviPod into the iPod without having to remove the iSkin eVo first. The top of the iPod remains protected by the iSkin eVo and gives you easy access to the hold switch.
We went back to the drawing board and came up with a completely new belt clip design. Its made of a durable, non-shattering, light weight plastic polymer that wont snap apart. The new RevoClip design offers one of the lowest profiles found on belt clips of its kind. It integrates seamlessly into the iSkin eVo and clips securely to your belt. The new RevoClip can be completely removed if desired and is fully compatible with the iSkin eXo2.
The iSkin eVo features a bottom dock connectorport cover that wont fall off and get lost. It securely plugsinto the iPods docking/charging port to keep out dust, dirtor liquids that may enter and cause permanent damage.

Almost perfect........2005-10-07
After having several "protection" solutions, this has been one that I am *almost* perfectly content with. It keeps dust out, saves the screen from scratches while still retaining perfect viewing, and of course is offered in several colors. The carbon colored one is pretty effective in hiding dust and dirt. I did not receive the touch pad cover, but otherwise it's complete protection.
My main issue with this item is the plastic belt clip. There's been many times where something will barely touch the iPod and rip the belt clip mount right off the back of the skin. Who knows how many times this can happen before it breaks. I wouldn't recommend this for anything that involves alot of bouncing or physical contact, ie biking, skateboarding, or maybe even jogging.
take Steven F. Bryant "sfbryant" seriously.......2005-09-15
I read Bryant's review and still decided to buy this case. BIG MISTAKE!!! I have to have my ipod sent for repairs now for the same reason as him. The ipod does not connect to the computer properly and it will not turn off or reset. I would much rather have scratches on my ipod. I do not recommend this product; spend some time to research a good case.
With screen guard and click wheel cover, it's almost perfect.......2005-01-28
I'm not sure what exactly happened to the last reviewer's connection, but although it's impossible to use the dock without first taking off the skin (which is relatively easy, regarless of what the reviews on other skins have said), you can just use the connector to sync with iTunes. It's a small price to pay for the protection you need for such a beautiful and scratch-prone machine. I recommend getting a case BEFORE you buy the iPod.
I looked for quite a while before buying this one, because I wanted beauty, portability, total protection and total accessibility of the controls. With the click wheel cover, this one is it.
I have to mention that my model came with a FREE click-wheel cover, which was very nice. It's a relief to know the whole thing is protected from scratches and dirt. The screen protector is nice and shiny and is The held off from the screen by 6 soft, clear rubber nubs, which is for scratch prevention, but it could probably absorb any accidental whacks that comes its way as well.
You can use the clip provided with the skin, or remove it (by the way, the clip's specifically NOT recommended for heavy-duty activities such as jogging.
Another frequent complaint about any skin is their tendency to attract lint and dust. That's definitely true with this one, but with this color (Carbon), it's not as visually noticeable. It also comes off fairly easily, I'm sure, with the proverbial "clean, damp cloth".
All in all, a solid product (although in my opinion the click wheel cover should come standard) that does the job well. Probably the best in its class.
Good luck, and enjoy your iPod!
DO NOY BUY THIS PRODUCT.......2005-01-14
I made the mistake of buying the iSkin. The opening for the docking port does not exactly match the firewire connector, so you do not get a complete connection. Now my docking port no longer works properly. I can't connect to iTunes. My iPod won't even do a reset now. As a result of purchasing this product my iPod is on the way back to Apple for repair. AVOID THIS PRODUCT AT ALL COSTS.
