I had originally intended to do a comparison of several high-speed USB flash drives. I contacted Apacer, SanDisk and Lexar, but I only heard back from SanDisk. This obviously makes it difficult to do a comparison. SanDisk sent me a Cruzer® Contour™ 4GB USB Flash Drive. As for a review, these sorts of things either …

Battery Pack Pro 2.1 Software Review
I just finished reviewing Battery Pack Pro 2.1 by Omega Software: Microsoft gets in a lot of trouble because it bundles too much with Windows.
