I’m a little in between craving for this gadget OR just totally ignoring it. I like the attempt of a “hardware lock” where you have to press key combinaations in the actual USB Flash memory device, but, isn’t that what a keyboard is for (and an auto play file) does? Hmmm…

Anyway, here is how it works… you plug the Locky device in and before it let’s data accessible you have to push those little lego like bricks to form your personal password. Aha, I knew you’d agree that it is more comfortable to punch the keyboard than those little buttons.

The Locky device is Korean made. I had to rethink flushing down my US$61 though to get it because I felt it was bleh. And besides, couldn’t I get one with a software lock for almost 3/4 its price. In today’s economic crunch, this is a little too much.

The Locky is available in capacities of 4GB, 8GB & 16 GB.
