    So does this mean they've figured out how to stop robots from stealing old people's medications?

    The first things that caught my eye were the cool logos behind the skull ones, and I thought "Hey, that's pretty cool!"


    Then I saw the actual micro SD cards, and I thought "Oh."

    Because I've always wanted to show off my trendiness with a piece of plastic that will spend 99% of it's time inside a digital camera or cellphone.


    At least now I won't risk being labeled unfashionable in those three seconds it takes me to remove it form the device and stick it into my card reader.

    @Benguin: Actually this could be very useful. By using one of these you can identify which card has your pr0n without having to even read it first.

    @Chris Dougher:

    I have to wonder too, living in Canada myself. I thought KDDI offered a range of GSM phones.


    Then, with our plans here on the local GSM monopoly, I could see it if they just decided to distance themselves from Rogers and decide it's not worth the angry customers paying loads of cash to connect.

    So the US may one day be taken over by migrant workers in power suits?


    I for one say bienvenido to our new overlords. I'd like to remind them that as a trusted Gizmodo commentor, I can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their large corn fields.
