I don't think this little guy needs much of an introduction, when someone says R2-D2, we all know exactly what that person means. Today for review I have a mimobot, what's a mimobot you say? Well it's a really cool USB Thumbdrive, or as mimoco calls them an 'Art Toy USB Flash Drive'. This thing is just plain cool, geeks everywhere should rejoice, mimoco combined two very geeky things, the USB Thumbdrive and Star Wars to produce a limited edition set of mimobots. The set, Series 1, includes Storm Troopers, Darth Vader, Chewbacca and of course R2-D2. So, read on my fellow geeks to check this little gadget out, I've got lots of pictures for you, and of course a bit of testing in this review...

About mimoco:

mimoco is a designer toy studio meets consumer electronics brand based in Boston, MA. With a mission to bring style and soul to personal tech devices and to inject interactivity into the burgeoning designer toy movement, the first fruits of our vision are the delicious and fresh mimobot designer toy USB flash drives launched in late 2005.

mimobots are little friendly data fiends! Feed the 2" monsters all your essential data (tunes, pics, presentations, docs, etc.) and transport your files in style wherever you go. mimobots lead the creative revolution in personal electronic accessories and functional designer toys - truly a marriage of art and technology!

The first mimobots, from The Cosmos & goSeries, feature nine core characters designed by contributing artist Yahid 'Serial Killer' Rodriguez (Mazatlan, Mexico). 2006 begins the Artist Series, an ongoing collaboration delivering only the crispest characters created by a selection of influential artists representing a cross-section of pop art genres.

Our crack product design team created the mimobot's sculptural form with portability and usability as a number one priority. As a new media platform, mimobots' onboard flash memory comes preloaded with bonus removable content such as animation, games, and music.

mimobots are available in 512MB, 1GB, 2GB, and 4GB capacities, produced in limited editions of 250 to 3,500 units, are hi-speed USB 2.0, compatible with both Windows and Mac, and include Windows Vista's ReadyBoost technology.
