Remember when LaCie somehow got out attention when they came out with USB flash drives—or USB keys—that were shaped like silver keys? It seems the obvious novelty has caught on. Here comes Active Media Products and their take on the key-shaped USB key called the MotKey. Available in 4 and 8GB capacities, the MotKey is still unique in its own right, with a shock and scratch-resistant rubber housing designed to make it look like a car key. (In comparison, LaCie’s CooKey and WhizKey drives look like stainless steel house keys. See? They’re different.)
It’s thicker than LaCie’s keys though, since this is built with the more traditional USB housing instead of the newer Chip-on-Board technology that makes USB drives slimmer, but they’re a headache to use on older USB ports. Lastly, the MotKey uses a USB 2.0 interface and supports Windows and Linux systems, with no word on Mac support (at least not on AMP’s product page).
They’re available now on Amazon, priced at $15 for the 4GB drive and $25 for the 8GB model. Both models come bundled with a keyring and cord.
