Mini Bike Pumps - Which ones work best?

I have a super small one made by Crank Brothers. Fits easily in a jersey pocket. Also has two setting; high pressure and high volume. All the internet retailers have them, but Performance is running a sale on it:

Does it work fairly well? One thing I hate about mini pumps that I've used is that it take some bit of effort to pump the tires up to a rideable pressure.

Certainly not in the league of a good floor pump, but it has saved my butt when I flatted. Had no problem getting 80-90 psi, good enough to get down the road and finish the ride. I think it is barely 5 inches long so it redefines compact.

Thanks for the reply. I'll check it out.

How much weight do you want to carry? If you can spare up to 260g, the topeak road morph is the best semiportable pump I´ve used. I have one of the crank brothers the other person suggested and it wasn´t very friendly in getting to a higher pressure. Not only that, I would lose considerable pressue in getting it on and off. It´s weight/size is very nice though.
