imho, if we're not running a commercial enterprise (or even if we are)
this is actually quite expensive. Okay, I bought SD cards not USB
sticks, but I've just paid £9 for 2x2Gb, retail. Dunno how easy it is to
copy in bulk onto SD chips but I would have thought it would be easy to
get "card plus reader" for under £5 each in bulk. What's the
Euro/sterling exchange rate? Last I heard I thought they were close to
parity :-(
