A-Data Technology introduces USB memory stick

Posted on March, Thursday 23, 2006 By News Desk

Taiwan-based A-Data Technology has introduced an USB memory stick at CeBIT in Hanover Germany.

Taiwan-based A-Data Technology has introduced an USB memory stick at CeBIT in Hanover Germany. The device doubles as a portable VOIP (voice over Internet protocol) phone. It can be loaded with Skype Technologies' voice-calling software and comes with an attachable headset, allowing a user who is on a holiday or working on the road, for example, to plug it into virtually any Internet-connected PC and use it to make their VoIP phone calls. Also equipped with an MP3 player and video player functions, it comes in three storage capacities: 512MB, 1GB, and 2GB. Users can load their phone books and other information on the device, and use it anywhere they can plug it in. The device is expected to be out in Asia by about April.

The company alongwith Micro-Star International (MSI) also launched the Solar Disk thumb drive, a flash-based memory device equipped with solar cells. The new product is the answer to the ever increasing popularity of reusable energy. The Solar Disk thumb drive,

available in 128MB, 25MB, 512MB, 1GB and 2GB variants, does not have any built-in battery. Its solar cell module powers its LCD display to indicate users the remaining power of the device.
