When Lexar says "Jump", it means it
If you happen to be using a Lexar JumpDrive, you might want to stop using it, right now. A press release from Lexar which just arrived in our Inbox explains that a previously unknown feature of the drive includes the potential to burst into flames. Which would certainly make you Jump.
What it actually says is: "Lexar Media, Inc. has announced a voluntary recall of the Firefly JumpDrive product due to a potential to overheat. Lexar JumpDrive FireFly products in the following capacities 256MB, 512MB, 1GB and 2GB, sold between April 1 and May 30, 2006 have been recalled from retailers." Details are here. Perhaps they might re-issue it as a barbecue lighter?
