Multipurpose USB Drive Fills Your Needs In Small Package - US3

Coming USB Drive can hold up your smartphone for viewing.

The simple little USB drive has not changed much over the years. The stick is generally the same size and performs the same storage function no matter which one you buy. The amount that you can actually store on one continues to increase making them very portable in a small size with a lot of storage space. As they continue to increase the storage space, there is not much else changing on them until now. There is a new one coming called the US3 which has found needs which people have and has presented a way to fill those needs in a small package.

This week's KickStarter project is the US3 Drive which is a USB drive, a stylus and a kickstand to hold up your smart phone for viewing. The 2 add on features for the US3 of a stylus and kickstand for your smartphone are great additions to a simple device. For me, the kickstand is one of those things that is an indispensable item for today's smartphones.

How many times have you needed to put your phone down and continue using it? Unless you have a separate kickstand for it or one built into the case, you have to prop it up against something to keep using it. With the US3, you have one ready to go and it will hold up your smart phone for viewing so that you do not have to hold it. That is a great idea.

With the large smartphones, such as the Galaxy Note, a stylus is becoming the way to work with many of the apps on them. But having to remember a stylus is a problem. With the US3, you already have a stylus available to you included with the USB stick that you carry. No need to have a separate one. The US3 is a marvel of convenience and it is a wonder why no one has thought of this before.

And yet there is even more to tell about the US3. It is waterproof, so if you forget to take it out of your pocket and it goes through the washer, you do not have to worry. If you have ever lost one that way and the valuable data that is contained on it, you know the loss you suffer. And, this has been tested already with the US3 coming out of a washing machine and working without any problems. This is really a great idea.

Unfortunately, this supports USB 2 and not the new USB 3, but that probably is not going to matter that much to you for the value of the small size and the multipurpose that this provides. The US3 is waterproof. It acts as a stylus. It acts as a smartphone kickstand. And it is a USB stick for carrying files around. It is a great combination.

So, if you are interested in what is being described here, the US3 drive KickStarter campaign needs your help to reach the goal of $20,000. For a contribution of $15 or more, you can get your own US3 drive when they are shipped in November. Take the time to look at the US3, a multipurpose USB stick.
