Jim,

All stated that it would NOT be accepted in any corporate environment in Europe as
corporations were banning the use of such devices by people in the office.
No employees were allowed to use such a device in the office.

I must say I'm surprised to hear this.

From my limited experience, I would guess that many corporate and other business enterprises allow employees to take company laptops home or on the road with them, use their own computer for company business, or to take software and documents home on mass storage to work on their own computer after hours. If the organization allows one to take a company computer out of the office, what security is gained by prohibiting small mass storage devices in the office?

I cannot imagine trying to run a business of any size without allowing some subset of employees access to company computers & data off-site and after hours. If that is allowed, banning the use of small mass storage devices seems non sequitur to this foole.
