Hi,

I'm after a new USB key and fancy the 8GB Lacie MosKeyTo. Here's what it looks like:

And here it is allegedly (according to Lacie) connected to a Mac aluminium keyboard:

My question is, on my aluminium keyboard the USB socket is recessed just under an inch from the left edge, and yet in this photo the USB socket would have to be hard up against the edge.

I believe that the plastic housing and lip on the USB element are actually too tall to allow the USB to fit into the socket. Apart from the fact it's false advertising if I'm right, I just don't want to order one online and discover it's useless (my rear USB ports are permanently busy).

Anyone able to confirm or deny?
