We've seen a few portable products begin incorporating Type-C into their design with no word of accessories taking on this new technology.

In comes Patriot, they just announced a dual-sided Type-C and Type-A USB flash drive in 32GB and 64GB capacities. Set to be used with the new Apple MacBook, Google Chromebook Pixel or any USB Type-C ready device, this is one of the first commercial accessories available on the market.

There has unfortunately been no confirmed retail price point in their press release, but we do know it will be released in June 2015.
