Well that sucks there's no easy way, luckily I don't think it was many games that I couldn't easily transfer saves but my other worry was save size.  Aren't the save sizes usually pretty large?

No, save sizes are very small.  Installs are what's big.

Now, you could go back and forth between your 2 systems for most games.  But some of them, like Heavy Rain, just won't let you copy your game for some retarded developer reason.  Otherwise, you have to go to each individual save files you have and copy them to your USB drive.

Can you save directly to you USB flash drive?

No, you can't.  At least as far as I know, when you save, the game won't ask you to choose the storage drive you wish to put your game on.  That's unfortunate, I will agree to that.  The future (next gen) will probably fix that though, with Cloud saving and stuff like that.  I just think it's really stupid that some games will lock the saves to an individual console (like Heavy Rain, among some others, as I mentioned earlier).  Copying files to a USB drive doesn't take long though (2-3 seconds per file), so it's not THAT bothersome.
