Cute. Sure. But $95 for $15 worth of memory? That's a lot of cute premium.

Cute, but it would be better if they donated to squid research or something...like the WWF penguin

A bit overpriced I think. The premium for "cute" is just too much! Let's see, an 8GB USB drive these days is under $20, so they are charging $75 for the fuzzy squid. I think they'd sell a lot more if they dropped the price to around $40 (or less).

I followed the link expecting a different type of squid (http://www.squid-cache.org/) running on a USB drive!

I kinda liked the flying spaghetti and cthulu ornaments. The cost is these look to be all had may. You're paying for craft.

No mention of water resistance...make certain the carpet monkeys don't use it as a bath toy.
