Dock-Free! Leave Your Cables at Home!; EDGE Tech Introduces the Secure Digital (SD) Card + USB Flash Drive Combo for Hassle-Free Transfer of Data Between Card and Computer or Your Favorite Consumer Electronics Device

Posted on: Tuesday, 19 September 2006, 18:00 CDT

EDGE Tech Corp (www.edgetechcorp.com), a leading supplier of DRAM and flash memory upgrades, portable computing products, storage devices, and other experience-enhancing technology solutions, announces the SD Card + USB Flash Drive Combo. This dual-interface flash device offers the versatility of both an SD card and a USB flash drive, which facilitates instant and secure downloads and transfers of digital files between consumer electronics (CE) devices.

Two pieces make up the product. When the small, corner sliding piece is secured to the second, larger piece that contains flash storage, the product's physical footprint is exactly that of a typical, rectangular SD card. When the smaller, sliding piece is removed, the resulting projecting end of the main device becomes a USB interface - plug it directly into your PC! Users on the go no longer need to worry about carrying card readers or other devices while on vacation or working in the field. Take pictures during the day and view or back them up onto your PC at night, with no extra cables or other devices required.

When disconnected for use as a USB drive, the sliding piece does not have to be reattached before replacing in the CE device. Packaged in a wafer-thin design, and small enough to slip into a wallet or change purse, the SD Card + USB Flash Drive Combo is made from a near indestructible fortified polymer that is 100-percent waterproof and dustproof. The product is plug and play, extremely durable, and hot swappable for ease of use and reliability, and works with both SD- and MMC-compatible devices. With a 13.5 Mb/s read speed and an 11 Mb/s write speed, the EDGE Tech Corp SD Card + USB Flash Drive Combo exceeds many competing flash drives' speeds and represents the next generation in micro memory technology. The SD Card + USB Flash Drive Combo from EDGE Tech is now available in capacities of 1GB, competitively priced at $49.99, and 2GB at $79.99.
