Got the secret?

As the early adopters hang ten on the swell of development aimed at realising the ultimate all-in-one handheld camera-phone-pda-mp3-kitchen-sink player, the rest of us seem to be getting quite comfortable with the rather unassuming USB stick.

From humble beginnings as the favoured PowerPoint distribution device, the USB key has changed its colours at a rapid rate. It’s a must have accessory with school kids swapping songs and movies wherever they are. Techies are installing entire operating systems so they can carry their PC in their pocket. Record companies are selling albums on them. The obligatory slew of novelty options has materialised.

Watch this space for a slew of clever USB key accessories. Kate Moss USB anyone?
