So far everyone has talked about using it with flash drives, hard drives and expanding their storage... those are GREAT ideas, I'll be connecting my 16GB Corsair flash voyager for sure! We just have to watch the power consumption. the SolarExpress supports up to 5V, 200mA (0.2A). most ext hard drives will draw more power than that requiring me to chain myself to the wall with a power cord... bye bye portability.. pout...

I would be connecting a USB bar code scanner to catalog all my DVDs, Music CDs, Software CDs and Books. Record serial numbers for warranty tracking, build a grocery store database for faster shopping, inventory all my computer equipment.. wow, where to stop? Printer, web cam, digital camera, USB to Ethernet adapter (Work doesn't have WiFi).

Ooo! One of those USB reading lights! Just for the pure nerdyness of it all!..
Or a USB powered Computer Vacuum.. nah, that would really suck...

geesh... too... many... possibilities.... Headache... blurred vision... shaking hands... pounding chest...
(Maybe install a medical reference guide? do they have USB defibrillator's?)
Whew! That was close!
Here's hoping I can handle all that connectivity in real life!

-GREAT contest guys! Really a lot of fun!
