Site ChipChick nailed it when noting the similarity between this 8GB steampunk USB drive and Rosie the Robot of Jetsons yore. The drive\’s creator, however, says it was inspired by a \” narrow bridge\” sign seen on a old country road. Really? Just check out that barrel-shaped cap staring down at you from atop a frilly gear collar; hands on hips in a tempestuous pose that makes us feel like we\’ve somehow wronged her. Regardless, for $300 she\’ll make a good addition in your alternate-history abode.
