"uFlash Disk operates on the Windows, Mac OS and Linux and utilizes a standard USB port. ... "
It says it is a "...Multi-platform support...". Could this include OS/2-eCS?

The price is rather high. I won't be trying that anytime soon. I will look for something with a more affordable price and try it.

Multi-platform means that only specific platforms are supported, which normally means WinXP & MacOSX (Perhaps, once in a blue moon, even GNU/Linux).

But to me it looks like it's an USB-MSD device (Only Win9x needs driver, the rest runs by PnP). OS/2-eCS has USB-MSD support, and therefore it is much likely that it would work flawlessly with our favorite operating system.
But the only way you can be almost 100% sure is to ask the developer if it is USB-MSD compliant.
