Hi,

The new technology that I would like to discuss is the wireless flash drive. It appears that this may be a great device.

The USB flash drive that wirelessly streams movies, music, photographs, and documents to an iPad. The size of a pack of gum, it accepts an included 8 GB SD card (supports up to 32 GB SD cards) automatically sharing files wirelessly up to 150' away, eliminating an iPad's need to dock with a computer or use e-mail to transfer files.

 Providing over five hours of stand-alone operation, it recharges via USB from any computer without the need for software, which also provides a convenient means of file loading and continuous file sharing. Up to six wireless devices can access the flash drive simultaneously using a free downloaded app, including iPhones, Android, and Windows smartphones.

A digital camera's SD card can be inserted; holiday pictures and videos taken at family gatherings can be immediately accessed by family members. With built-in data encryption, it provides secure transfers between similarly configured devices.

    I'm a new owner of an I-Pad. The wireless flash drive sounds like a good addition to my technology toolbox. Thanks for the info.

    I had not heard of this one yet. This sounds like a nice alternative to using cloud storage or Dropbox. I take so many pictures, and videos, plus storing music, I find that I quickly run out of storage space on my iPhone, and my computer drives for that matter.

    Thanks Katina. What a terrific way for local file sharing without the need for Internet connectivity

    Sorry about the edits...getting a feel of the blog. This is definitely new technology for me. I haven't heard of this one either. You have my vote! I love the idea of not having to use the dock and to be able to transfer files from that distance virtually is better than plugging in cord. Thank you for sharing!
