Ironkey's support for non-Windows platforms is sorely lacking. TrueCrypt is what I tend to use for securing a variety of portable media. -David On Tue, May 11, 2010 at 1:48 PM, iamnowonmai <iamnowonmai at gmail.com> wrote:

I really like the look of this drive in the link above, but before I move forward has anyone heard of any vulnerabilities in this device or am I missing something?
