I know I would certainly pay over the odds for a NetBSD branded USB
key (it looks like most of the sites offering to brand them are 'Price
On Application', so I don't know how much it would cost).

It does look like there will be a minimum order - unless there is a
service which will 'print and copy' on demand, someone will need to
maintain stock and produce and ship them, which would (hopefully) be a
non trivial amount of work.

I love the idea, but I'm not sure how it would work without that volunteer...
