My Personal Favorite is the iDisk Tiny

My personal favorite is the iDisk Tiny.

You can purchase the 2 GB model here:

You can find out more information about the drive in general

I love it because it is so small. It attaches to my keyring.
It is smaller and weighs less than most of my keys. That way
I'm never without it. How many time have you been somewhere
and someone's said, "Oh, I have that on my flash drive," only
to discover that they left it at home that day? Many other
drives will also attach to a keyring, but most of them are too
bulky for me to allow them in my pocket. They also don't have
an easy way to remove themselves. I don't want to have my
keychain hooked to the back of a flash drive that is plugged
into the back of a computer. The iDisk Tiny has a clasp like
you would find on a necklace that allows it to detach and
reattach to your keychain.

It's not the fastest drive in the world, and I wouldn't get it
if the only purpose was to run ReadyBoost, because I would
leave that permanently attached to my machine, but it is at
least twice as fast as it needs to be for ReadyBoost, so you
can use it for that purpose if you like.
