I've used Hak5's USB Switchblade in the past with great results
(http://wiki.hak5.org/wiki/USB_Switchblade). There are multiple flavors to
choose from or it's fairly easy to "roll your own."

As for getting U3/autorun, if the target machine doesn't have Autorun turned
on (and your flash drive isn't U3) I don't know of an easy way to
enable/force this functionality so I'd also be interested to hear some ideas
on this. As far as I'm aware, the only other option is to induce action from
the target end-user.

Subject: Autorun programs from flash drive.

Hello, and thanks for reading this.  I am sure we are all know of the
Autorun feature in Cdroms and Dvdroms, how the program just runs out of the
box.  I am trying to figure out how to include this functionality in flash
drives.
/* I have a SD card with a USB adapter to test with. */
This would allow, say, for me to quickly insert a drive into a computer,
have it silently run something like Meterpreter or another backdoor program,
and then have remote access to the computer, assuming Windows runs it and
doesn't detect a malicious program.  I understand that Windows by default
will not run Autorun.inf by default on flash drives, except the U3s.  But I
have also heard that you can format a flash drive to look like a cdrom to
Windows.  This is about all I know.  If you have any more information, or
would know about how to go about doing this, please tell me.
Thank you again.
