He's a demon on USB

Are you likely to be spending some money at Target in the near future? Then you might as well head on over there sometime soon and pick up this Speed Racer-themed gift card (which you can use later to buy what you actually wanted in the first place). Even if you're not interested at all in the upcoming game (or movie), you'll still land yourself the free mini USB 2.0 Flash drive that comes with it. The drive only holds 62.8 MB worth of stuff, but should that bother you, you're missing the key word here -- free.

Initially, 51.6 MB will be taken up by promotional Speed Racer goodies, but that stuff can always be deleted. Those of you who are looking forward to seeing the Mach 5 in action soon enough, though, might enjoy some of the extras provided. According to GamerTell, the drive includes:

• Five coloring book-style pages featuring the Mach 5 and Racer X's car (PDF file)
• A coupon for $1 off a Speed Racer Powerburst racer and $3 off a Speed Racer Powerburst figure-8 track set (PDF file)
• Two Speed Racer desktop wallpapers
• A Speed Racer family movie (MOV and WMV files)
• A special code for the Wii version of the video game (we wonder what that will do/unlock?)

Due to the nature of the internet, we're sure you'll be able to find the game code without buying the Flash drive-bundled gift card. Still, we recommend getting one of these pseudo-free sticks if Target is one of your regular stomping grounds.

damn, that reminded me of a cool thing here in sweden, the schools sent out free memory sticks to the students with information of their shool on it, which was a document of 2 kilobytes, the memory sticks were 512 megabytes, haha they're stupid, guess if anyone ever read that document before formatting the stick? not me anyway, hahaahah!
