Since they do not specify the transfer speed nor the access time, it is hard to say. The make does not mean anything. I compared 2 Kingstons, and see the difference. The first one is about 70 times slower than the second one (access time). So the first one would never qualify for e.g. Ready Boost.

A couple of days ago I bought a 4GB Sun Disk Cruzer at Staples for $2.75 (after rebates). It has an access time of 0.6ms and it has the U3. If you hurry, you might still get one.
