+Nia Posted March 29, 2002 Posted March 29, 2002 we picked up a USB keyring from a cache somewhere don't ask why. Does it have any use, or is it just a keyring??? If it is just a keyring, and I think it is, when you plug it in your PC you can't use your keys, so what's the point? anyone? Quote
spog Posted March 29, 2002 Posted March 29, 2002 Lucky you - they are a great way of transferring quite a bit of data from one machine to another - sort of like a hard disk on a keyring. http://special.reserve.co.uk/listings/extrainfo.php?code=GG6200 I'd love one - I'd happily swap it for the dice with flashing LEDs that I got from a Winchester cache and is the most high-tech goody I've found. spog PS It's a nice dice...

+Nia Posted March 29, 2002 Author Posted March 29, 2002 I wish it was, but alas its just a bit of see-through green plastic with no chips or anything inside, and a USB plug on the end. You had me very excited for a while as i tried in vain to see it there was any data on it. Quote
+jeremyp Posted March 29, 2002 Posted March 29, 2002 It could be a freebee from a computer show. I was at one last year where this company was promoting a USB security device which you could put on a keyring. They were giving away dummies with no electronics in for free and if you went to their stand you could buy a real one. These were opaque and purple though, so it's not what you've got, but yours might be a dummy version of somebody else's product. ------- jeremyp We're going to need a bigger boat! Quote

Well, if you attach your PC to your keyring, you're unlikely to lose your car keys whilst geocaching. spog Quote
