Buffalo Japan have today announced the release of a new ultra-small USB thumb drive that makes use of a removable MicroSD chip to store data. The drive is essentially a tiny implementation of a microSDHC card reader and comes bundled with your choice of 1GB, 2GB, 4GB or 8GB cards, though you can use your own.

The cost of the bundles will be ¥1,800 ($19.50), ¥2,300 ($25.00), ¥4,300 ($45.00) and ¥7,300 ($76.50) respectively and are due in Japan in mid December.
