Default Memory Vending Machines??
Apparently Kingston has lauched a flash memory vending machine in the UK?!
This seems like total madness and is just begging to be broken into, what do you guys think?

If it was any memory besides kingston it would be a good idea. I have had no luck with kingston, so I will not be going to the UK for memory.:)

I would rather read a NewEgg review than a [H] review

Hey, when you need that flash drive in a flash, you won't be laughing!

The thing is, if you need a flash drive or a flash card that quickly and they will only have these things at malls and enclosed places, you would likely just be able to walk into a Target or Radio Shack or just about anywhere in your typical mall type setting and get a flash media device. Heck, even my small town local grocery store has flash drives and flash cards now!
