The manual doesn't say a thing about it. Is it used in conjunction with picking pockets? How DOES one pick pockets? I've got the PC version AND the xbox version. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks.

A probe is good for disarming traps
To pickpocket someone, you need to be behind them and hold down the sneak button. When the sneak icon appears, "use" the person and you get to see their inventory. Then all you have to do is drag whatever you want from their inventory into yours :)

Well once the aliens come, I'm pretty sure that nobody will ever need to ask what a probe is again =p.
Seriously though, it disarms traps. It's dependent on Security skill but since theres apparently only 1 variety of trap it doesn't matter much if you keep probing it. I keep 3 Masters probes on me and with 40 skill I typically disarm in 1 or 2 tries.

Hmm.. gotta correct you there, AresProphet; there's many varieties of traps (poison, fire, damage health, etc.). On the other hand, if you were trying to say that all traps have the same difficulty level to disarm, then yup, true enough.
