Thumb Drive from MS?
Just wondered if anyone who ordered the free thumb drive from Microsoft has received it yet? Can't remember how long shipping took, if anyone has how big was it (storage size, not dimensions! :p) and could you wipe it and use it for storing anything you want? Just suddenly remembered about them!

If we get them it'd be a miracle. Q for Mr Gates; can you perform miracles? |

If microsoft are making it then it'll probably need service packs to bloody work over the next few years then they will finally get it it right and release a different drive, and stop supporting the one you have now :D
