  7. Better spy flash drive on IronKey Unveils Self-Destructing USB Flash Drive · · Score: 1

    Would be one that said "this flash drive well self-destruct in 5 seconds" the 2nd time you removed it from a computer (1st time to write the sensitive info to it, 2nd time for recipient to read it). :D

    I can't find a reference to it. Certainly they submitted a bug report. They mention they found it on debian, so it seems like they would have file one.
