USB 3.0 isn't really that new. PC manufacturers have been incorporating it into their machines since last year, and external hard drive manufacturers like Western Digital and Seagate have also been taking advantage of the faster 3.0 spec for almost a year now.

SanDisk's Extreme USB 3.0 flash drive sports a functional, rather than a flashy (pardon the pun), design. The all-plastic construction of the drive features a black matte finish, with the USB plug being retractable via a glossy plastic slider.
