Handing them out Sugar talks or workshops would be great.  I am not a
big fan of widely casting swag to people.  I have never used a USB
that I have received as swag at a conference:(

How far off are we?
What are the major blockers?
Do we have 'good enough' collaboration servers?
Can we easily modify images so that they point to specific servers?

Should be given away as part of a workshop or talk.  The ahhh factor

pretty high!
