Abstract
Surface optical characteristics, alpha-numeric markings and other design features of memory cards, flash drives and similar devices combine to provide the devices with unique outer appearances. In one example, markings are held a distance from a reflective surface such that reflections of the markings off the surface are visible adjacent the markings. In another example, a diffusely reflecting rainbow hologram is combined with such markings or other design features.
