I looked at a flyer for Mobil's (a gas station for
non U.S.A. posters, petrol place for those UKers
etc) Smartpass, which is a little keychain fob
that bills your credit card automatically when
you wave it at the pump. I looked at the picture
of the thing and said "That looks familiar." 5
minutes later I figured it out.

The thing is a credstick.
