In general I think the important point is to have an image that rocks in 
the first place ;)

If there is connectivity at the conference, and you give a note that 
people should bring their sticks or download it before coming to the 
conference and put it on the stick, that should cover most of the cases. 
One can prepare let's say 10 sticks that people can use during the 
talk/workshop and that they hand back after the talk.

The good thing with sticks is at least that you can reflash which covers 
the outdated problem, the one why I personally does not take often cd's.
