It’s not the first time we are coming across key drives….well I mean “key” shaped key drives. Previously we saw LaCie bringing before us the key looking key drives which had the metallic appearance but here we see some that are colorful.
My first USB thumb drive was a Kingston 64MB which I bought in sometime early 2003. I was a proud owner and remember people asking me about the price and where I got it from. Things have changed drastically since then. Kingston just launched their newest thumb drive with a whooping capacity of 256 GB. Imagine that!
Travel a lot? Have to use a laptop in the airplane even if it is dark inside? You may want to look at the 2-in-1 USB Fan and Light. It is super portable and may be very useful for a lot of laptop users. The device has two items – the fan and the light. You can choose either of the two whenever you want.
Many of us are used to online purchases with the use of credit card but somehow security of your card information in such transactions is not guaranteed. So there are chances that your credit card information being tampered and be used in unscrupulous activities. As a solution NetSecure Technologies brings you a device, the SmartSwipe that helps you swipe your card in it for online payment rather than typing in your credit card number.
Mouses come in various colors, but unlike USB drives there aren’t too many mouses out there which are very different from their conventional counterparts. The mouse shown above may be an exception. It is called…well the “EGG Mouse”, and is currently available in Japan.
If you thought you are surprised by the number of electronic devices that are powered by USB, guess what…you are darn right! Adding one more to that…check out this Chainsaw (yes, it is a real one, no jokes!), claimed to be the world’s first USB powered Chainsaw, called the iSaw.
Are you a regular soda drinker? Do you live on Pepsi / Coke? Then this might be interesting to you. Check out the USB powered mini-fridge which will keep your soda chilled while you are busy with your computer. While at 47°F, the device does no make the soda ice cold, but it is enough to make your drink really “chilled” in just under 5 minutes!
If you think only mobile phones and computers can be miniaturized, think again. Even our favorite kitchen gadgets seems to be undergoing the same fate. Check out the world’s smallest USB powered microwave from Heinz.
Technology has a great impact on our lives. We love to see new products, use them, reject them and get dependent on them. We are typically in a sea of different inventions with lots and lots of options. One such thing is a flash drive which is used immensely as a data storage device. Its portability factor gives it that great advantage.
