If I didn't already have two of these, I'd get another!

Not the fastest in the world, but certainly small, and doesn't get in the way. I plan to use them on a media player so they don't stick out enough to get bumped.

They short you a bit on capacity, though, even with the usual excuses of a gigabyte being 1,000,000,000 bytes vs being 10^9 bytes. These puppies have less than 16,000,000,000 available bytes.

Who would have thought a few years ago that you could get 16 GB of storage (more or less) in something this size for $10?

@drgandalf: It is an amazing new future we live in.

Science would have thought. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moore%27s_law

I don't think this is such a stellar price but I would like to point out (like drgandalf just did) that being so small that they barely protrude from a laptop is a huge plus because there is no risk of it or the USB port getting broken when something runs into which adds some peace of mind. Also you can move your lappy around quickly without having to consciously make sure the stick won't hit something. Of course you have to make sure you don't lose it because it is so small too.

Owning one of these tiny storage fobs is a real gas sometimes. I recently was in the lab with my supervisor, who was asking about some data analysis I'd done. I pulled my LaCie drive off my keyring and plugged it right into his computer and brought up the (very large) file with my analysis, so we could manipualte it right there at his desk.

Also very convenient if you're always getting requests from friends for computer help, because you can carry tons of administrative tools or even a full OS/rescue kit.

What does "Recycled: yes" mean?
Does it have someone else's data on it? :)

Be sure to select "Budget shipping" for the free shipping. They pick Standard shipping by default, and that costs money.

@drgandalf: 10^9 = 1,000,000,000

Did you mean 2^40?

Great deal, same thing on Amazon for a few dollars more.
As another person mentioned, don't get duped into the pre-checked shipping box. Be sure to click the standard shipping for free delivery :)

Where are the USB 3s?

I have two minis--one 16, and one 32--and they are dead useful for small places. My 16 gig resides in the front of my Blu-Ray player, and the 32 in my Pocket eDge. If I needed more, I'd snap this up in an instant.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
