  They tell you what sizes?  If they're smaller than 1 GB, they're
prolly just trying to get rid of old stock they can't sell at any
price.  Not that I'm opposed to free stuff, but it's good to put a
value on it.

  Gift horse, mouth, Greeks, gifts, etc.

  How much is the discount worth?  Does it expire?

  A link/banner/button on the "ThanksTo" page would seem okay for this
kind of thing.  More than that would require more than some flash
drives, I think.  :)

  Any other terms?  For example, can either party withdraw from the
agreement at will?

  While this is dancing close to the edges, I think it's within the
spirit of the above.  Besides, nothing is written in stone.  We can
tweak the policy, or withdraw from the agreement, as appropriate.

  The only other thing I can think of would be that this could turn
into a slippery slope, leading to too many sponsors to properly
acknowledge.  But I'd also say that I eagerly look forward to having
that problem.  ;-)
