Spending a few extra bucks on any mundane stuff in this financial meltdown situation might not be a good idea for many of us, but the $599 limited edition 8GB 18-carat solid gold Pico-C USB drive hopes to change the conception. Coming straight from the house of Super Talent, this lavish gold USB drive is water resistant and supports up to 30MB/s transfer speeds. The custom-made Pico-C drive comes with an 18-carat solid gold keychain, a serialized certificate of authenticity and the whole thing is delivered in a black velvet jewelry box. Laser etching is done at no extra cost. Do they really need to charge extra considering the already hefty price tag? Anyway, the 8GB 18-carat solid gold drive is available on a preorder basis for a limited time.
