Personal Pocket Safe: A USB Drive That Requires A PIN To Read Or Write

Any sort of nefarious content should be under lock and key, or at the very least combination. The Personal Pocket Safe USB Drive protects all your data by simply requiring its user to punch in a PIN on the built-in keyboard before read or write access is allowed. For added security the drive will erase itself if someone forces entry and after 3 incorrect PIN attempts it locks up. There’s no word on capacity, which leads me to believe their trying to sell it to OEMs, but you can grab a bunch of them (or one) for about $100.
