One of Mazda’s latest prototype models replaces the traditional key-start ignition with a USB flash drive.

“What’s more, the drive also has the more conventional flash drive functionality of transferring files (such as music) to the car’s hard drive,” writes Alice Hill’s Real Tech News.

How long until enterprises are worried about employees literally driving away with important documents? If you get locked out of your car, do you call AAA or the Help Desk?

Should be interesting to see how this unfolds.
