"From the wish-I'd-thought-of-that department: the Flashbag. It's a standard USB flash drive that has a tiny pump in it that inflates when you load it with data. So if your drive is full of stuff, it blows up like a balloon, but if it's empty it remains flat and rectangular. It'll stay inflated even when powered down, so you'll be able to estimate how many more MP3s you can leech from your friend's computer just by taking a gander."

If you try to load too large a file into it, does it explode?

That actually made me gag. Who came up with that revolting idea?
