Playing or Storing Data?

You know iriver, right? The 1999-founded company that is mostly famous for its media and mp3 players? Apparently the Korean manufacturer is not only good at providing us with some of the best and high-quality media players on the market. It is also good at developing and even rolling out flash based storage solutions for you to keep on your keychain, everywhere you go. But don't expect to find these products too close to where you live, unless you're from Korea, as currently they are only available there.

iriver recently rolled out the super simple Domino flash drive in Korea, where it is offered with 2GB and 4GB capacities. To help keep its minimalistic design, which seems to perfectly fit iriver's new product, the company has designed the Domino flash drive with a USB thingy. This makes the drive look more "Domino" and also allows its user to better carry it around. Being only 4.3mm thick, this USB drive can really get lost inside your pocket or even among your dominoes.

Each piece weights only 2g and Korean users can choose from the six available colors, meaning white, pink, silver, black, chocolate and coral pink. They are obviously compatible with both PC and Mac systems, but because of their slim design and bright coloring, they look better on one of Apple's MacBook portable systems.

So whether you use it to store your favorite photos and videos or just want to have it while playing a Domino game, iriver's new solution might be just the thing for you, that is if you live in Korea. No word on pricing or even availability in other areas, but it seems that in Korea you get these "toys" for the local equivalent of $21 and $34 for the 2GB and 4GB variants respectively.
