Bike lock technology protects your data like 007

If you can't sleep at night without knowing that those vacation photos you have stored on your thumb drive are absolutely, positively secure, this 007 USB Flash Drive is for you. Combining the digital security of encryption with the decidedly analogue security of a bike lock, the 007 keeps your data doubly safe. The combination lock not only keeps would-be data thieves from getting to the thumb drive, it also will physically lock the drive to an object, such as a desk, via the steel cable. If they somehow figure out that the code is your birthday, once they plug it into your computer they'll need yet another password to access the data. That's a lot of protection, so you'd better have something important enough to be worth keeping under such lock and key in those photos. This seems to be just a concept right now, but who knows, it could hit stores someday.

This seems to be a good concept; I the like the idea of a physical and digital lock. I guess for now though I will stick to StompSoft's Portable Vault to protect my USB drives.
