Purchase their photo as a print. A variety of print sizes and packages are available. These prints will be made directly by the systems inside the Space Mountain Merchandise Shop.
Purchase their photo as a digital download from the DisneyPhotoPass.com website
Purchase their photo as a digital file and combined with other bonus digital content on a Disney-themed USB drive.
Guests will also get a Space Mountain themed PhotoPass card which can later be used at any other PhotoPass location.
The USB Drive will include the Guest's ride photo plus 7 extra professional stock photos of the Space Mountain attraction.
The original charge for the USB Drive and the first ride photo is $24.95. Additional photos can be added to the same USB drive as part of the same transaction for $9.95 per photo. All regular Merchandise discounts apply.

As interesting as this sounds, having the USB option PLUS PhotoPass card(s) sounds really expensive.
Until they equip ALL rides/attractions that have associated photos with the USB option - and allow photos to be added to your thumbnail drive at a reasonable price ($9.95 per photo is NOT a reasonable price for a digital transfer to a USB drive - Maybe $9.95 for a package of your ride photo PLUS 7 stock photos??) I will reserve judgment and save my money.
Just allow photos from all rides/attractions to be added to a new, or existing, PhotoPass - like Test Track currently does. Paying for the PhotoPass CD should be enough $$$ for the pics they take!!!!

Anybody have any idea what kind of capacity the USB drive has?

I wouldn't purchase the USB drive (at least until its a better value) but I am excited that it looks like they are moving more toward adding the pics to photopass cards like on Test Track.
