    I prefer the term "Portable device that uses solid-state electronic technology to store data in the form of electrical charges that it transmits the state of to a host machine through to use of a universal protocol for the transfer of data in the form of a series of electrical impulses"

    You forgot the silicon part.

    It's pronounced "pudd-tousuu-fuffufuf-hamtoup-fossee"

    That's how it went through my head and in my opinion it rolls off the tongue quite nicely.

    Although no one actually does it, you *could* make a USB drive without silicon.
