certification. Eco Tech Certified.

Press Release Body = A Consumer Reports study http://consumerreports.org has
recommended that USB Flash Drive manufacturer Flash Drive Direct
http://www.flashdrivedirect.com be awarded the environmental designation ETC (Eco
Tech Certified).
"ETC is awarded to only the most innovative of technical advances that save either
energy or natural resources or both" states Don Earl, CR contributing Editor. "
Flash Drive Direct (a vertically integrated manufacturer of Flash Drives
http://www.flashdrivedirect.com) has created a new generation of Flash Drives. The
energy consumption in both the construction of the drive and its use compared to the
burning of CD's is 80-90% less in Flash Drives. This may seem a small energy savings
on a single person use but with over 1 billion writeable CD's sold each year in the
U.S. alone the impact of the energy reduction by using Flash Drives vs. burning CD's
is staggering" states Consumer Reports writer J. Browne.
