"As someone who doesn't reside in the USA, I was wondering what would be the best way to get internet for my computer in the US for a couple of weeks? If it were Europe I know I'd look for some prepaid data. Is there anything similar offered by American carriers?

I think your criticism is way off on this one... The drives visually demonstrate a well thought-out and innovative form. Something not that common in the industry.

What the heck, I think I want one! My only gripe is that they do not come in 2GB flavors.
