 Lexar Mercury - USB flash drive
The easy-to-read onboard meter saves users time by letting them quickly and easily gauge exactly how much storage space is left on their USB JumpDrive without even plugging it into a computer. Based on Electronic Paper Display (EPD) technology created by E Ink Corporation, the display is a paper-thin, shatter proof form that is easy to read, and does not rely on power to maintain capacity information. Lexar JumpDrive Mercury is the first Lexar product to feature the capacity meter and will be available in 1GB and 2GB.
