So these free giveaway Cue Cats are going for about 5-6 bucks a pop on 
Ebay these days?

Astonishingly envisioning their imminent demise I held on to a couple 
(one I have still in unopened packaging somewhere), hoping to eventually 
sell them for about $1000 as "dot.bomb" nostalgia.  I guess I'll have to 
wait a few more years :)

P.S. I've never seen the USB version before (mine are plain old PS/2)

Apparently they're worth a little more.
