EEPROMs took all the fun out of it! I'm not sure by USB thumb drive would be so convenient otherwise, though.
You joke but my first Psion Organiser used EPROM storage modules that you had to erase with a UV eraser (sold separately) when you had filled them...The 2nd unit had EEPROMS but you could only erase the whole thing to reclaim space..."deleting" a file would remove it from the list but it would still be there taking up space.
