The humble memory stick has been crafted to resemble everything from lego bricks, to practical bottle openers and decapitated teddy bears.

But now designers have come up with the most unusual pairing yet - a flash drive that doubles up as a sex toy. The Duet is a discreet vibrator for women that is powered by the USB port in your computer. However, it can also store up to 16GB of data. Designers Ti Chang and Michael Topolovac, from San Francisco, developed the sleek non-frilly device after hearing the most common complaint from vibrator-using women was the hassle caused by bulky charging devices.



Mr Topolovac said: 'Two female friends were expressing their frustration over the products and shopping environments in the world of sex toys. 'I was struck by the profound gap between the quality experience women sought and what was available.'

The device is made from 'body-safe silicon and metal' with dual motors that are 'virtually silent' but provide five power levels. 'You look at it plugged into a laptop, charging, and it doesn't look anything like a vibrator,' Ms Chang told New York Daily News. She added that she had been frustrated by the 'cheap' and 'poorly made' alternatives on the market. 'Seriously, is there a more fulfilling endeavor than this? To bring pleasure to women is my way of helping to make the world a better place,' she wrote on the company's website.

According to their website at lovecrave.com the device is waterproof to up to three metres and available in three colours. The device apparently lasts for four hours on one charge. The product is being funded by CKIE, which is a crowdfunding platform. Backers who paid $75 were promised the $139 product at launch, with a similar discount for more expensive models. Nearly 300 people have backed the product.
The device will retail for between $139 and $349.

It's what you can do with it that counts.
