There are plenty of unsavory things you can do with it (give it a
fake label, drop on ground outside business, hide in van outside,
wait for someone to plug it in to a computer to see what it is, take
over their network, etc), but I've also found innocent uses for it
with setting up complicated keyboard macros.  Watching it open
notepad and type out a document never gets old.

On the down side, my fiancee won't let me touch her computer anymore
after I showed her what I could do with it :P

While you're on the site, check out the wifi pineapple and throwing
star LAN tap.  I've been meaning to get those too, but haven't had
the time to play with them.  Or a real reason to have them.
