Memorex, a portfolio brand of Imation Corp (NYSE: IMN), takes portable storage to new heights with its M-Flyer Pilot, the latest introduction from Memorex’s TravelDrive line of USB flash drives. As the newest addition to the Memorex family of portable storage devices, the sleek M-Flyer Pilot features a retractable USB connector, up to 4GB of capacity, security software, and ReadyBoost capabilities for use with Microsoft’s Windows Vista operating system.
While retaining the sleek body styling of the original TravelDrive M-Flyer, as featured in TIME magazine, the next-generation M-Flyer Pilot adds a splash of color to its patented capless design and spring-loaded, retractable USB connector. Available with 2GB or 4GB of storage for photos, music and data files, this aerodynamic drive sports a silver-toned body with metallic blue or red accents, based on capacity.
With Pioneer unveiling its first Blu-ray Disc (BD) Combo drive (BDC-S02) in May for sale at a recommended retail price of US$299, Lite-On IT plans to start production of its BD Combo drives in the fourth quarter of this year, according to industry sources in Taiwan.The only BD combo drive I have heard of is the DH-2E1S which, according to some sources at Lite-On, is already available. I guess we'll have to wait and see. If you'd like to read more, head on over to DigiTimes. Add a comment
The sources cited Lite-On IT's relationship with Royal Philips Electronics as the rational for entering the business. The two companies are partners in a joint venture for producing optical drives (Philips & Lite-On Digital Solutions) and Philips is a charter member of the BD Association.
The Cruzer Contour is available now in capacities of 4GB and 8GB. More information, including prices, can be found here. Add a comment
SanDisk Corporation (NASDAQ:SNDK) today announced availability of Cruzer Contour, a sleek USB flash drive that brings together high-end design and blazing speed. Much like a fine wristwatch, Cruzer Contour is a luxury personal accessory as well as a piece of functional technology.
What especially sets apart Cruzer Contour, with its glossy black top and silver metallic body, is the drive’s unique sliding USB connector. Using a thumb to slide the top of Cruzer Contour back and forth brings out or hides the connector. There’s no visible switch, and no cap to lose.
No word on pricing or availability yet. As we find out more, we'll let you know. In the mean time, Samsung's entire press release can be found here. Add a comment
Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., the world leader in advanced semiconductor technology, announced that it has begun mass producing 1.8-inch solid state drives (SSD) at 64GB (gigabytes) - the highest density SSD available today for mobile computing applications...
...The 64GB SSD consists of 64 eight Gigabit (Gb) single-level cell flash memory chips. Use of 51nm process technology permits fabrication of much smaller components, with each chip having circuitry 1/2500th the width of a human hair.
The lower than expected demand for CD-R discs is mainly because brand and retail channel clients in the US and Europe had replenished their inventories in the first quarter of 2007 and therefore placed few OEM orders this quarter. Additionally, the unexpectedly strong sales of digital music players around the world has diminished demand for CD-R discs, the sources pointed out.These prices probably won't last long. The article points out that the cost of optical-grade polycarbonate is slowing increasing due to the price of crude oil. If you'd like to read more, head on over to DigiTimes. Add a comment
In response second-tier makers in Taiwan have cut prices to compete for few OEM orders resulting in the low OEM price levels, the sources indicated. In addition to CD-R discs, they have reduced OEM prices for blank 4-8x DVD+R/-R discs to as low as US$0.12, the sources noted.
