Wooden USB Flash Drive Comes With Post Its

Post It notes are one of the greatest inventions ever for offices, as these little sticky notes sure come in handy when you need to remind yourself or your colleagues of an outstanding task. This wooden USB flash drive comes with 2GB of internal memory, but it has an edge that others don’t – there is an integrated Post It dispenser along one end of the entire drive, allowing you to scribble down important notes and stick them around your monitor. This would be perfect if it came with a built-in writing instrument as well as more memory, but it is one of the more interesting convergence office devices that most offices could make do with. No idea on pricing though.
