This JUST became available on the 25th. I ordered one. Seems to be just about the right size for the Everex. When I get it next week I'll post how well it fits and how well it works.

To get ReadyBoost to kick in just right click on your SD or USB and click properties... Readyboost will be on the tabs. Just click on it and test to see if the item is readyboost compatable.
Good luck!
