FlipSync Charges and Syncs Your USB Device, Fits on Your Keychain
There's not much else to know about these keychain-friendly gadgets. They're about the size of a key fob, and they come in two versions—one with micro and mini-USB connectors that'll work with most USB devices, the other with an iPhone/iPod connector.
A FlipSync will set you back $20, which isn't cheap, but you're paying for the idea and convenience on this one.
I'm sure this would be great for road warriors, but for me, the bang is not worth the buck. I do like the form factor, though.
If you do buy this, be sure to attach it on the key chain next to your Iamakey thumbdrive.
Soon all of my credit cards with be waveable from a keychain fob too - then we'll really live off of them - especially since you can hack your front door to unlock with a keychain fob - and these days, many cars unlock while it sits in your pocket.
Ultimately I guess we'll just have one tiny consolidated chip implanted in our wrist when we turn 16. Reply

What a wonderful idea. It even covers both mini and micro, which blackberry is in the process of converting. Every cellphone is supposed to have micro-usb connectors by what, 2012? I wish all small electronics were forced to use the same standard (music players, gps devices, etc), even though Apple shows zero interest in fitting in. Reply
That iPhone seems to be confused as to if it's actually being charged or not. Reply
