16gb thumb (flash) drives?
I bought a 4gb flash drive about 6 months ago and that was the largest one available (AFAIK) at the time. I have since lost it! Now I'm seeing 8gb and 16gb flash drives on eBay, but I also see people saying they're fake.
Does anyone have a flash drive larger than 4gb or know if real 16gb drives are available now?

I think we may even have a shorty here at Icrontic by BuddyJ about a 32 Gb Flash Drive!
Thanks for the reply MJancaitis!
I repeat, eBay is a minefield.
Sorry, just saw your post: I've got my fingers crossed for you. I hope you don't end up with a 1GB stick of super molasses DDR1.
Now I wonder why the NTFS format failed. Before it would even try, I had to change the policy from "optimize for quick removal" to "optimize for performance". I didn't even know that was an option.
You do know that ALL drive manufactures label the size based on 1000 bytes = 1 kB even though 1024 bytes = 1kB right? Thats the reason for the 'lost' size after formatting.
Did I say it in Japanese or something?
MJ is referring to us both having 16gb drives, but his shows 15.1 formatted NTFS where mine shows 15.9 formatted FAT32.
