<p><strong>Design</strong></p>
<p>When I first got this little USB flash drive, I was amazed by its design. I can’t believe that it is a “Made in Malaysia” product!</p>
<p>The <strong>SmarThumb</strong> size is small, only about 2 inch long. The 360 degree rotating silver metal cover is very nice. It covered the black color drive body nicely when closed. You never need to worry about losing USB flash drive’s cap anymore! </p>
<p>The only drawback about the design is that it easily leave your fingerprint on the metal cover.</p>
<p><strong>Softwares</strong></p>
<p>When you launch <strong>SmarThumb</strong>, it opens a window on top right corner that contains shortcut to build-in softwares(depends on your model). The window can be minimize to tray when not in used. However, I wish it hide the taskbar button as well when opened.</p>

<p><strong>Space taken?</strong></p>
<p>I was wondering how much space left for file storage needs? I thought the softwares will taken up most of the space. I was wrong. With dozen of softwares in the <strong>SmarThumb</strong>, it still left over 200MB free space. </p>
<p><strong>Who will need it?</strong></p>
<p>You will need a <strong>SmarThumb</strong> if you share computer with others or like to travel with light luggage(less few KB weight of notebook). </p>
