Philips & Swarovski Crystals USB drives

Last year's launch of the Active Crystal drives from Philips & Swarovski must be some success. The ladies must really dig the crystal-clad flash drives in heart & purse shape, and now they want more. The 2008 collection collection of thumb drives ranging from sparkling robots to glamorous moon might be just what they like.

Finally, more robot USB drives are hitting the market. Now we are getting more then we can handle. Some are even downright shiny like this one. Philips’ Active Crystal collection has been around for awhile. This time around it’s got Swarovski crystals in the 2008 range. The 2GB Robot Naughty Raymond, in black, is already available, and to give him some companionship, here comes the USB Happy Laura.

It’s set in white with sparkling crystals for the body and features for the face. The cute girlly bot even has ruby lips! Happy Laura has a 2GB capacity and will be available in Europe for $238. This is probably more glitz and glamor then you really want on a USB drive, but if you happen to be a rich robot loving gal, I guess it’s perfect.

The Moon USB Memory Keys have a polished stainless steel body with either a fully faceted Chrome or clear crystal. Unlike the robots, they come with a retractable USB connector that can be released by pressing the crystal chaton on top. All four are now in 2GB, a rather disappointing upgrade taken account into their pricing. The Moons currently retail for €190 each while the Robots cost €40 less. Moon pics after the jump.
