Signed up, waiting for the confirmation email they sent to validate you are really a company, so they can ship out the usb drive :)

Thanks for the heads up ....

@Shannara
You're welcome ! I live in AZ - they're in CA. Mine arrived in 2 days.

@dracflamloc
I'm sure you will - I think everyone who expresses interest in porting or creating a U3 compatible app will get one. So far (not including myself)
25 of 25 of the people I personally know whom I've told about it that have actually applied AND are programmers AND have a legitimate web site have received one.

Well, I've signed up - but I'm a UK national, so I'm not sure if that'll stop me getting a drive.

I filled it out but don't have a web site so probably will miss out. Shame.

I already have a 2gig jump drive, so I have no need of another one. Was only interested to see what pb apps I can get to run on this bugger an certify ... pretty cool that certification is free for this ... which is awesome.

Do you know if the USB stick can be used for data storage or is it write-protected ??
