Abstract
A flash memory device including a housing, having a form factor of a business card bearing printed information, a non-volatile memory within the housing, for storing digital information, and a connecting mechanism within the housing for a direct operational connection of the non-volatile memory to a host, such that the digital information stored in the non-volatile memory is accessible to the host via the connecting mechanism. At least one slit located within the housing provides a somewhat elastically bendable portion within the housing that includes the connecting mechanism. The scope of the invention also provides configuring the non-volatile memory to allow only an authorized party to access personal information stored in the non-volatile memory.
