Dunhill Bulldog (The Sophisticated - And Expensive - USB Drive)

At $350, the Dunhill Bulldog USB Key - made by the well-known luxury company Alfred Dunhill - may not match the price point of the Adam & Eve flash drives, and the Bulldog’s stainless steel construction is but a pale shadow to the gaudiness of the 14k Gold DiskOnKey U3 drive, but that doesn’t mean the Bulldog is anywhere near reasonably priced, particularly for a drive with such a small capacity (and a no-name manufacturer, although we suppose the product page means “SanDisk,” not “Scandisk”).

Of course, since these drives are a case (so to speak) of form over function, we’re supposed to admire the exterior, not concern ourselves with the innards (or the price), and taken from that perspective we can see the appeal: the drive’s steel sheen makes for a much more sophisticated look than something covered with gold or diamonds, and the bulldog makes for a smart-looking cap. If we had the money, we’d probably buy one.
