It's alive! It's ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! B3ta born product #16325167-b
Full working prototype model, with option for the led visible to show when in use. :)


The Bourbon itself is rubber and the circuit board inside has a heat proof plastic shield to keep things extra safe.
Still waiting for responses from manufacturers, but hopefully this might stir up some more interest. Plus I've got
one more to contact who may in fact be the perfect choice. but if you work for someone who could put these in to
full production, contact me through my Profile or Gaz Mail.

does it have a cap? What does it look like with the cap on?
( M3rx I think it's time we had the sex., Tue 6 Feb 2007, 14:15, archived)

yes it does
but it's just a black plastic one to cover the USB, not like a complete extension on the biscuit :D
( HappyToast is dancing like Tim Booth on, Tue 6 Feb 2007, 14:17, archived)

Have you seen the ones that
have a little knob (for want of a better word) that slides the usb connector out of the body of the memory stick? That would be cool, but I'm no expert on these things.

As they stand they're superb. I'll definitely be up for getting one.

( M3rx I think it's time we had the sex., Tue 6 Feb 2007, 14:34, archived)

I'm not disparaging either, I think it's fantastic!
but it would be kind of cool if the biscuit was whole when it was closed and part of it came off as a cap to reveal the usb port, thus utterly concealing it when not in use.
maybe as a deluxe version or something.
it's great, anyway. just great.
