Thumbs Up, To A Good Connection

Thanks, Adam Frucci at SciFi.com, for the great post (and a great image, too) on the concept design to connect Memory Infinite USB thumb drives. ``By sticking a female connector on one end and a male connector on the other,'' he writes, ``designer Vicky Wei has created an ingenious way to create expandable, portable storage. Need to add a gig or two to your thumb drive? Just connect another one. The design allows for infinite expansion in theory, but something tells me that no one would want to carry around 20 of these things chained together.'' There is also an interesting comment from SciFi member Astabon, who writes: ``Technically, you can only chain up to 127 USB devices together, provided you have enough power. But doubt you would do that with these. Cool idea though.''
