Ye Gods! Doesn't this make anyone even a little nervous? Autorun from a CD drive is bad enough, dontcha think? Being able to walk up to a machine and stick that in the port and autoinfect, or worse autocopy, seems to be a huge risk to me. I can see it now - someone on the night cleaning crew walks into the CFO's office, sticks that thing into the front USB port on her PC, and walks away with the My Documents folder. No muss, no fuss, no need to even turn on the monitor.
