No, I am finding them for less than that, all the way down to 5.00 bucks a piece. Yes it is much more than a CD, but a CD is a throw away item. A pen drive has actual long term use. But let's take the high number, 10.00. Assuming we order 250, that is ~ 2500.00 (shipping etc..). The item is then reusable for years... with a little blue elephant and URL. It also becomes a talking piece, "What's that on your pen drive?". Versus a CD which will likely be loaded once (if we are lucky) and then thrown away. On the cursory review of companies that do this I am seeing prices for a 128MB model for anywhere from 6.50 to 4.60. The real question will be what does it cost to pre-load it. Let me see if I can get some better numbers for that. However even if it cost 2.00 to pre-load it (which I highly doubt) we are still talking about a resuable item. And of course, it can be used to drive donations :) Sincerely, Joshua D. Drake
