How do you determine if a USB memory stick is adequate for use as a
ReadyBoost drive?
They don't normally give speeds on the package, and I don't want to buy 20
different kinds
just to test them all and find out that 3 of them work. There's gotta be a
better way!

Check the reviews. They typically tell you the speed and will often
elaborate (it's fast..it's slow..).

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
NOTICE: In-Newsgroup (and therefore off-topic) comments on my sig will
be cheerfully ignored, so don't waste our time.
 
Some are also now advertising they are Readyboost compatible. I just
added a 1GB Kingston Readyboost USB Flash drive. $20 from Buy.com.
