You posted a link to this page: <http://cfgearblog.blogspot.com/2012/01/vizio-announces-30-usb-ports-on-new-pcs_10.html> VIZIO doesn't make flash drives as far as I can tell. So they probably job that out to cheap promotional companies. That would also explain why VIZIO told you they don't know anything about it. When purchasing a flash stick, it's best to stick to the name brand manufacturers like SanDisk and Kingston that are known for good quality. -- E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my ravenous SPAM filter.
