Thumb drive/bottle opener combo is one seriously useful gadget

usb-opener.jpg

If you're going to carry around a USB thumb drive that has a bunch of data on it, you might as well choose one that offers more in terms of functionality than mere data storage. After all, with so many brands out there putting out thumb drives and with the cost of storage dropping so low, you need to look beyond simple aesthetics.

The TrekStor USB thumb drive doubles as a bottle opener. Yep, it can store between 1GB and 16GB of data, and it can open up your frosty brews as well. Make it your keychain and you'll always have whatever data you want with you, be it documents or media files, and you'll never be searching for a bottle opener again. It makes regular old thumb drives look downright featureless in comparison.

What if you are copying something to it and have to open a beer? Pick up the whole computer to open a beer, quit the copy or wait for your beer?

I only keep doing this because your bot tells me the text is wrong. WHy is my comment there if the text is wrong? And why does it have to be so hard to get it right? Only a human would try 3 times?
