Is your data so important that someone might try to kill you for it? If so, Pretec's new i-Disk BulletProof may be just the ticket.

From the press release (the only source of information about the product currently available): Capacities ranging from 32MB to 2GB, PRETEC i-Disk BulletProof is constructed with double layers of sealed protective metal, capable of preventing circuit damage from water, fire, and even shielding the heavy impact of a bullet, making i-Disk BulletProof the most rugged USB flash drive in the world.

Pricing hasn't been announced, though the product "is shipping now to a selective number of customers including specialized e-tailers around the world." I've got my request in for one. Now who's got a gun we can use to test Pretec's claims?

    I guess it'll go good with one of those indestructible laptops.
