I use a 512 MB SanDisk "cruzer mini" I got for my birthday last year. The only trouble it's ever given me is that it doesn't like the USB ports on our iMac keyboard (not enough electrical power or something), so I have to use the USB ports on the main body of the iMac, which isn't that big a deal in my case. My girlfriend's cruzer mini doesn't have the same problem, even though she bought hers around the same time as I got mine.

Yup, the Lexar jump drives are the same way. They don't like any USB ports but the ones in the back of the computer, whether PC or Mac. The only weird thing I've had with my Lexar is that it doesn't pick up the drive when I plug it in on a Windows system. It shows a drive has been detected, but it shows that it is empty. When I click on the drive image it says, "Insert a disk into drive." Then if I log out and back on, it picks up the drive fine and works. Minor annoyance, but it is an annoyance.
