the smallprint that says this offer is for US residents only

Also found this on a forum from a really annoyed M$ punter :
___________________________
-32MB.
-encrypted write protection.(don't bother trying to format it as it renders
the device useless)
-Will require ghostscript+net.frame installed (in other words it will work
only on systems that have OEM XP installed).
High speed users are advised to disconnect routers\hubs\cables before
plugging it in (your data will be subjected to probing).
-user who has a pirated copy on the system who uses it will be locked out
of the machine until you insert a valid key (you'd better backup and know
how to format ntfs)
-This offer targets small business and corporations NOT individuals
therefore your order might not processed or will get low priority.

John, John, John, you really _are_ getting a tad paranoid - a ".NET
Passport" can be as simple as a valid Hotmail address.

Now settle, petal, and take a few slow, deep breaths.

Feeling better? :)
