Star Trek limited edition flash drive stores new movie
Attention Trekkies: Whether or not you liked J.J. Abrams’ new Star Trek movie (who am I kidding, didn’t we all like it?), you’ll probably be buying it to add to your collection. You can be one of the lucky bunch to grab a limited edition version of the movie placed safely inside a 4GB Starfleet Insignia flash drive.
Each drive is individually numbered, so you know it’s one of a kind. Of course, you can’t go around lending the drive to all of your friends — the drive is loaded with DRM, but you can still share it with five different machines, and burn it to a DVD.
The movie itself only takes up about 1GB of space, so you have 3GB more to save all those Photoshop photos of your head on all of your favorite characters’ bodies.
The drive is available for pre-order at Play.com for $29 (US). [Via OhGizmo]
UPDATE: Apparently this only ships within the UK. Sorry to those of you in the U.S. who got really excited (I’m right there with you). We’ll keep an eye out for a U.S. version.
