Im a freelance software programmer as well as a geocacher, and im planning on using a special type of Flash Drive (U3 Flash Drive) alongside a travelbug.
I had a slightly similar idea, and I decided that even if everyone was on the level, and used the usb drive in good faith, that there is always the chance that any writable media could unintentionally pick up a virus along the way.
I'll be using mini disks instead with readable data only, no software. That way several system compatibility issues can be addressed immediatelyby running it all through a native web browser.
