I checked it out last night. Looks like we will all be getting the Mingle Stick thingie when we get to WWRUG, and it's a way to pass vcard info to and from one another easily and wirelessly. It's legit. You can set up your account and decide what information gets passed along. It's even configurable, so you can have different sets of information based on the trusted status of the recipient.
I would guess that it is also how at least some vendor prizes will be signed up for. Instead of scanning your badge, you'll just Mingle-thingie them. At least, that's how I would do it. I don't have any inside info that says that's how it will really work.
