[citation][nom]noodlegts[/nom]God what's all this complaining about.If someone wants to sell something, they have the right to. Just like you have the right not to buy it.I agree those X-Box branded thumbdrives are overpriced, but it's a smart strategy. Someone will CHOOSE to buy them.[/citation]No kidding, I could see the complaining if they *only* allowed MS-branded USB memory sticks to function as a 360 storage device. But you can format any 1GB+ USB stick to use an amount you choose up to 16GB for 360 memory storage, and the remaining amount can still be used for storage for your PC, etc.[citation][nom]False_Dmitry_II[/nom]Yeah, but a regular flash drive is smaller to carry profiles to friends' houses. (though I did that with a 120 gig drive before that size was available. It's also not something that totally everyone can do.)[/citation]Yep. A small flash drive is very convenient and noob-friendly.
