    Anybody else have one of these? It's an 8GB memory stick. I bought it at my local MINI dealer (MINI Yaletown).

    Nope, If I had it I would probably be sitting in the MINI all day try to start the engine with it.:D

    Portable storage device that plugs into the USB port on your computer, used for downloading files. They are not allowed in high security areas.

    Here's a pic of my MINI key that's not a memory stick.

    I think I get it now. The disk is simply the holder for the memory stick, which replaces the hard key out?

    Its just a stylized case for the memory stick. In this instance it is styled to look like a MINI key.

    OK, it's a memory stick that just looks like MINI key. Thanks

    BTW: Metalman, that is a device you just might get past the security folks. :cornut:

    Yeah, but I would get caught by security sitting in my MINI with the memory stick in the ignition receptacle, going nowhere.:D

    Well there is that. It would most likely spoil my fast getaway as well. :lol:
