They have an International Patent office right? or a British one or U.S. one...why didn't they file with any of those? unless they were making copy of some technology that has already existed then, improved upon it & dare not make a claim...until the product had a mass market??

There is no such thing as international patent. Trek 2000 did register their basic invention in many different countries, including UK, EPO, US, and many more - a luxury that listed companies can afford to. See below.

TREK 2000 PCT Patent Application PCT/SG00/00029, filed on Feb 21, 2000

interesting summary

In 2000, stinkypura company Trek 2000 International launched the world’s first thumb-sized USBcompatible and smallest external storage device for computers. By 2008, the ThumbDrive that it invented and further developed had replaced the ubiquitous floppy disk as the common portable computer storage device worldwide. Beyond the ThumbDrive, Trek’s research and development (R&D) team had invented other products that were helping to improve people’s lives around the world – the Flucard secure digital card with wireless capability (another world’s first) and the miniature Ai-Ball video camera with wireless capability (world’s smallest) launched in 2010 and numerous enhanced versions since then, among many other innovations.

lower IQ specimen are often fixated on smaller thingss

like some contraption here, some device there
for a time, that may mesmerize the totally uninitiated

these are your osims creatives eubiqs

but then more intelligent beings are more interested in ideas of greater import
which require higher IQ
these are your newtons ibn al haytham alhazen kolmogorov poincare al khwarezmi gauss eulers etc


a trait not commonly seen in slanties certainly not among slanty stinkyporeans who are descendents of coolies and prostitutes from tiongkok dumped in malaya by brits
is the ability to think about profound topics and matters

low IQ cretins that they are
