In Feng Shui, crystal is believed to bring some kind of positive energy, which will bring all sort of positive effect such as boosting your money luck, your health and your relationship. And crystal and those semi-precious stones have been quite popular among those fortune chasers in Asia for the past few years.
I think the crystal effect even has crossed the line. It’ now even succesfully made itself into the geeks’ world. Phillips and Swarovski have come out with new kind of crystal-clad USB flash drives, the Active Crystals collection, which they have storage size of 1GB. Other than giving you the kind of sparkling crystal effect while dangling around your neck, perhaps, it will also help you wash away the negative energy and keep you refreshed with the positive one (My Feng Shui version).
It’s got 4 styles. The Heart Ware and Heart Beat are worn as pendants. The Lock In and Lock Out babies attach to a keychain. All these 4 styles come with 1GB storage size. The drive will cost you at slightly over $200 per drive, and will be sold at Swarovski distributors and come in a jewel box.
