I just came across this on del.icio.us: http://macetech.com/blog/?q=node/46

The author made a small USB device that intermittently switches caps lock on as a prank (it is, however, programmable). It's a bit on the technical side, but may be of some use.

For some security testing, I am looking for a USB device that can send
pre-programmed key strokes when plugged-into the USB port. Any
suggestions?

I want something that doesn't require a software/script to be loaded
on the computer.

Something along the lines of WiebeTech's MouseJiggler <

justsends the mouse commands without loading any software.

Or maybe a programmable keyboard that can send keystroke as soon as it
is connected, without requiring any software/script to be loaded.
Obviously this device would require a built-in processor and some
memory.
