(Car stereos etc.)" ......i knew that isn't possible to connect a big capacity USB HDD but and USB Stick? Why? is 32 Gb too much for a car Stereo or only this one? my stereo doesn't show any specification about this. Could you tell me what i should do please? Thanks in advance!

It took an hour and a half to copy 14 gigabytes, all my music, pictures and videos. I had about 8 GB of music files, and each tune took 3 or 4 seconds. It is obviously sturdy and has a great screw-on cover. However, it's a bit heavier and bulkier than the usual lightweight plastic ones, so your pocket will be heavier if you attach it to a key ring. The little attachment holes at both ends are a bit too small, but the dog tag ring fits, so a key ring can be attached to it. As for long term accuracy and reliability, only time will tell.

I believe you mean ’shock absorber’.

I ended up with an Iomega eGo instead.
