Unknown device .... Any ideas ?

After napping for four months, this thread has awakened. Because it's been a short while since I looked at this thread, I've reviewed it, just to refresh memory. Something just struck me about this post - that the user (or the Thread Starter) has asked about the connector on the side, asking if it WERE a connector. Well, if he has this device in hand then he would be in a far better position to have answered that question than any of us. Unless one of us happens to have that same exact device. Since the case is clear - the TS should be able to see into that connector (assuming it is a connector) and would know for sure whether it is or not. However, the photo posted looks like a stock image of the device. Given the lack of participation in this thread from the TS, I'm wondering if it was posted just to get attention. Either that or the TS went ahead and plugged it in and discovered its purpose. Maybe it crashed his computer - maybe it found all of Hillary's email's. Whatever the case - I'm unwatching this hence forth.

But before I do unwatch, the two photos are absolutely identical down to the characteristic plastic flow from injection molding, which makes me think two things - 1) the TS is also known as gzhlon; and 2) the original photograph is the exact same photograph in the link posted by hzhlon.

Phishing - that's my opinion. Phishing for validation. I could be wrong. If so - my humble apologies from the get-go.
