USB Drive Enclosure Locks Data Down via PIN

So you've read our review of the Corsair Flash Padlock and decided it was exactly what you have been looking for, but you have too much data that you want to carry around with you to fit on the measly 2GB flash drive and don't know what to do. Neither do I, but it sure looks like the folks over at IOTEK sure do, and with a little pizzazz to boot.

The ezSECU ez850 portable hard drive features an LCD touchscreen that appears to let you password protect your data with up to a seven digit PIN. The enclosure measures in at 79.5 x 129.7 x 23 mm, looks beautiful, and seems to be compatible with at least Win2k and newer and Mac OS 9.2 and newer. It even comes with a plastic case to put it in and protect it and even appears to be able to attach itself to your belt. Nothing is mentioned as to whether any encryption is utilized to keep someone from just taking the hard drive out of your enclosure and read the data by connecting it to another enclosure.
