For a long while now, the USB flash drive space has been commoditized, with lackluster, piecemeal improvements in the sector.

No more.

Yesterday, Verbatim introduced a line of rugged USB flash drives, the TUFF-CLIP series.

Well, today they introduced some slim-factor flash drives, the Tuff ‘N’ Tiny series, as well.

Suffice it to say that this space was due for new blood, and a new attitude towards innovation and competition.

As I await samples, please enjoy these photographs.
