You described the situation in the custom usb drive market precisely. We tell our customers right from the get go that the Nand chips are a commodity traded on an exchange like wheat, oil, or gold and that price volatility may cause a change in price. I also agree with your statement about custom usb drives being the best form of branding around. Customized USB drives have a very high perceived value and are extremely practical. Just about everyone uses them. Again nice blog! I wrote one myself on the same topic but did not explain it as eloquently as you did. Good rant!
