Bamboo Post-it Flash Drive is an Environmental Paradox

Look at you, Mr. Bamboo drive. You’re so eco-forward, abandoning plastic for a renewable resource. But wait, is that paper I see? You’re not going to write on that, are you??

This Bamboo USB drive with built-in Post-its is, maybe, the absolute cutest little flash drive we’ve ever seen—in spite of its somewhat confusing stance on the environment. Of course, that cuteness comes at a premium beyond the glare of fellow earthy-crunchy office workers. A 2GB model runs $US30, including just 100 miniature notes. And at that price, you may be better off just slicing dollar bills for your grocery lists (like I do now). It works OK as long as you start with crisp bills and keep your twenties far from the singles. [Daramouse via bbGadgets]
