Re-using your Macbook Air 10.6 recovery USB drive
Well, if you blow away the recovery partition on your USB stick, you have no "emergency" solution if something goes awry with your main storage. I suggest you use Disk Utility to repartition the newly cracked USB stick to 1GB/7GB, and then use Apple's Recovery Disk Assistant to turn the 1GB partition into a recovery partition. That way, you still have the ability to boot from it in case something goes horribly wrong with your main drive, and also have 7GB of "free" media for portability.

Re-using your Macbook Air 10.6 recovery USB drive
I just got two new 13" Airs and two new 15" MacBook Pros with Lion, and no USB stick was included with any of them. So don't be surprised that it's not included with the mini...it's not included with the laptops either!
