Lexar's Hot Red JumpDrive FireFly USB flash drive delivers up to 16GB of storage.

This new device is PC and Mac compatible and comes in four different memory capacities, headed up by the bright red 16GB model.

The key is portability with this dinky memory device, which is small enough to go on a keyring, and as a keychain hole for exactly that.

But the JumpDrive FireFly drive also features a protective cap for security and a blue LED tail that blinks during data transfer, so you know when a transfer job is complete.

Darrell Hill, senior product marketing manager at Lexar Media, says: "The new 16GB JumpDrive FireFly drive is a bold new step in storage for Lexar. Whether you’re a student with tons of notes, a blogger with a collection of video clips, or a mom with an online family album full of digital photos, our stylish new 16GB JumpDrive FireFly drive lets you keep your precious data and media files on hand while on the go".

And the drive comes pre-loaded with a free 30-day trial of Dmailer V7 software, which is a file backup and synchronisation tool, which works with programs including Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express.

The 16GB Lexar JumpDrive FireFly drive is available for $99.

Lexar JumpDrive FireFly drives are also available in 1GB, 2GB, 4GB and 8GB capacities.
