slow?? very slow.. damn slow.. speed sucks!! i own one.. and by experience i advise you not to buy the v30 series!!! instead get the kingston data traveller or the sandisk cruzer series.. they are faster than the v30 series....

compared to USB 1.1, any USB 2 drive will be blazing fast

Also which is better a U3 pen drive or a regular one?

if u3 drives are costlier than regular ones then don't buy them. however, if they retail for the same amount then no harm in buying them.

head to this site: www.portableapps.com. this will make any portable drive more useful than a u3 drive.

i got a sandisk U3 micro cruzer. the U3 feature is quite cool. u can carry around softwares, games and stuff. i even carry around avast anti-virus which is gud to scan infected comps since the anti-virus on infected comps often gets modified. however, softwares eat into ur pen drive space so u should take a high capacity drive if u plan to carry lots of sw

Forget transcend, kingston and sandisk, get a buffalo instead.

Hmm by the v30 not being fast what is actually meant is not that it is USB 1.1 (yes v30 is USB 2.0) but just that the write speed into the drive is only 25% of the same compared to the hi-speed ones from transcend.... The read speed is around 80 - 90 % of the hi-speed ones from transcend.... Believe me, the hi-speed Transcend pen drives are pretty good but I own only a 1 GB drive :(
