Wednesday 28 April 2004, Swindon - First produced in 1891, the Swiss Army Knife bursts into the 21st Century with the best of both worlds; pocket-size, practical technology. The Swiss Army USB Key Drive with detachable memory stick connects directly to computers and is compatible with Microsoft, AppleMac and Linux software. Download your latest presentations, slip it into your top pocket, walk into a meeting, plug in, play and impress!
Smaller than a man’s little finger, this lightweight, rugged mini hard drive is ideal for a keyring. Early indications are that it is a ‘must’ in the men’s gadgets category.
The memory stick manufacturers have worked with flash memory technology for 10 years so this personal mobile storage device is tried & tested. Sole UK stockists Amplio Technology Group Ltd. shipped the first supplies this week, priced £59.99 on www.flash-card-store.co.uk and http://www.iwantoneofthose.com/SWI64M.htm
The 64MB memory stick is password protected and there’s data encryption. Download digital pictures, documents, email or MP3 music files with full-speed data transfer. Compatible with USB1.0 and 2.0 connections, it runs on Windows 98/SE/ME/2000 and XP or Mac OS.X, Mac OS9.0 and higher. The nail file extends making the ballpoint pen easier to use, the LED flashlight illuminates your writing and there are useful scissors.
Amplio Technology Group’s MD, Jon Blows, attended the product launch last month and comments ‘We’re confident it’s a winner. Bringing these two gadgets together was a brilliant idea and interest at CeBIT was staggering. We think it’s what the best-dressed executives will be wearing this summer and it ranks pretty high on the gift list for the man who has everything!’
