Yeah, since you guys know more about USB drives than just about anyone I know, do you guys know of any good ones that I can get. I'd like to get 2GB and one that's decently fast at running these Portable Apps. Also, my price range would be less than $30 if that's even feasible on the market nowadays. So any good deals?

UK people could try DABS. The "DABSValue" range looks cheap, but user comments seem to suggest a variabillity of quality.

They have a 1 GB drive for £12.50, which is about $24 USD. (without postage) so I'm sure you could find something similar in the US.
The drives are made by Yifang digital. I have no idea about US suppliers.

If they aren't in the US, they probably aren't here in Australia.

my suggestion:
corsair voyager
i have a corsair voyager 1G for playing around with knoppix
the performance of knoppix is even better for corsair voyager than 52x cdrom
in addition, corsair voyager has 10 years warranty ( it's the case in Hong Kong, i'm not sure whether it is for other places )
2gB for less than $30 might not happen. Ebay has a warning page in its flash memory section about knockoff drives and faked capacities. Keep with a reputable dealer no matter what. www.newegg.com has a good reputation for fast shipping and good prices. I bought both my Cruzer 512mB and my Rally 2 gB from there. I'm not certain, but they should ship worldwide.
Hmmm...would 1GB for less than $30 be likely?
USD$30 would be ~AUD$18. Not going to happen over hear.

People who didn't need people needed people around to know that they were
the kind of people who didn't need people.

I have u3 Sandisk Cruzer from play.com http://play.com/Electronics/Electronics/4-/1112151/SanDisk_Cruzer_Micro_...
for £15.99. They seem the cheapest for the UK.
