Charles & Marie Porcelain Memory USB drive

Here, for a change, is a USB memory drive that doesn't look like something weird -- it feels like something weird. The Porcelain Memory has 1 GB of memory and comes with its own hand knit pouch. The price is $125, however, which seems steep for what you're getting, which is a chunk of (admittedly oddly beautiful) breakable that's a bit smoother than a baby's bottom. While I understand wanting to make ordinary things have a sense of delight and wonder, maybe making near-disposable items delightful in order to quintuple the price betrays a peculiar misunderstanding of the tech lifestyle.
