This updated pic comparing the Cruzer Titanium (on the left) to the rest of the flash drives,

Maintaining the standards set by the original, the new Cruzer Titanium makes it impossible to lose the cap, because there isn't one. Instead, the USB connector is protected by a retractable white slider that only moves when a small amount pressure is applied. The slider is recessed into the casing of the flash drive, so that while it's easily accessible to the thumb, it cannot move accidentally when thrown into a bag. The also doubles as an activity LED, that shines a bright blue when connected to the computer and flashes when data is being transferred. The smooth casing, developed by Liquid Metal is very elegant, casting a nice speckled reflection reminiscent of a fine set of mechanics tools. Towards the back is a small loop for attaching a lanyard, and two grooves for attaching the included belt clip. (The belt clip, while an interesting addition for a flash drive didn't have smooth edges and proved hard to clip onto even a pair of jeans, let alone a belt, so I never use it.) Back to the casing however, despite its being smooth and shiny, it's actually quite rugged. SanDisk goes so far to claim the drive can withstand over 2000 pounds of crush force. I don't happen to have that kind of machinery readily accessible, but I do have a car, so on to the juicy bit of the testing!
