The Bayer Contour looks quite interesting. Do you know, if the firmware can somehow be modified to run own code? The YT-Video you linked, didn't quite show that.

Please see related discussion in the Stackoverflow link. The default desktop software is java so yes it should be easy to see what is going on and modify the files accordingly. The DB it uses is SQLlite.

Um, I read the stackoverflow link and it's talking about modifying the software that runs on your host PC to pull data off the Bayer stick.  There's nothing in there about putting your own code on the stick.


Bump, any news?

MineMind, those sticks are all really cute, but I don't see any evidence that any of them meets criterion #3 "Some sort of microprocessor/microcontroller on it that I can reprogram."  Frankly most of the value I was hoping to get out of posting the bounty was pre-filtering for programmability.  Just posting a bunch of links to USB sticks without any research into whether or not they're programmable doesn't help me much.
