LaCie (http://www.lacie.com) has announced the LaCie CooKey and LaCie
WhizKey, design by 5.5 Designers. The new USB flash keys are modeled
after the LaCie iamaKey.
Both are made with “sturdy” metal, making the surfaces tough and
dependable, according to Minh Le, marketing director for Lacie.
Additionally, the Gold SIP connector on the USB keys are both water-
and scratch- resistant, making them some of the thinnest and most
durable flash drive choices on the market, Le adds.

surface and up to 32GB of storage. What’s more, they integrate an
extra 4GB of online storage through Wuala (http://www.wuala.com.
