USB drives that "show" (literally) the capacity!

Ever wondered how much space you have on your flash drive, but didn't have a computer to check? Or just didn't want to plug it in, just to find out you don't have enough space for whatever it is that you keep on there (we won't go into the details of just what that data is... hehe). Well check out the Flashbag! It actually inflates as you put data in it, so you can tell just how much crap you have loaded on that thing!
