After killing a bunch of USB sticks; and knowing that we can't force kids
to unmount, we should have the ability to recover these bad sticks.
One thought is to make it easy to reformat a stick from the XO. (kids
might not have a PC locally that they can reformat USB sticks with; and it
is not available from many MACs).
