If you have to have it.
I would say that is in a class of if you need this tool you can get it now. Yes it is way too expensive for anything I would use it for. I would go with something like this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA1DS0CZ4958 with an SSD in it if I need a fast, portable, and rugged drive.

It's pretty amazing how they can pack all that storage onto a small USB drive though

Early tech adoption premiums... so high lol. Once the price comes down on this sort of flash drive performance I would LOVE one of these. 'till then I'll let the uber tech-heads blow their cash wads on it x-)

An alternative
I'm sorry but comparison with ssds is just useless, there is however a usb drive that can be used to compare(SanDisk Extreme USB 3.0), it's 64Gb, but it's only 80 dollars on amazon as of now, I've gotten mine up to 210mb/s,190mb/s read/write. Can you please do a comparison with the Kingston and Sandisk drives, since I can't afford the 1000 dollar Kingston drive

Sadly no mate. We reviewed the item with stuff we had to compare it with. This wasnt a round up and companies wont just send stuff in because we want it. Life is a little more complicated than that, we only did this because its nuts, we dont have time to go reviewing every USB3 stick on the market.
We are a bit too busy to be doing that

Thx for the great review, but i can't fully agree with the performance score.
A msata ssd in a usb3 enclose is only a bit larger, but much faster and cheaper(about £200 cheaper). Its a pretty good thumb drive. But when there are other options that perform much better, scoring this thing a 9 for performance isn't really justified.
