Soyo 1.8 inch 20GB USB Hard Drive

Small, but I built a 250 gig usb hard drive for about the same price using the refurb caviar from woot and an enclosure. Slightly larger, in two respects.

can you BOOT a computer from this?

Close but no Cigar (Soyo, Sony, Sanyo).

overkill and overpriced

20GB for $70? I got 200GB drive in a Firewire/USB 2.0 combo case for that much. Thanks but no thanks.

I don’t want to carry it in my pocket. I want to leave it somewhere safe, as a backup.

Decent Woot but I’d be wary of anything from Soyo these days. They seem to have gone downhill over the past couple of years.
