AirStash, a wireless flash drive with media streaming and two-way document transfer capability has been announced through a partnership of Maxell and Wearable. The drive claims to be beneficial for people who wish to view, save and share documents and media on the move.
This device appears to be the only one which brings together the compactness of a standard USB flash drive, power of a media streamer, flexibility of SD flash media along with the convenience of wireless two-way file transfer. The Maxell AirStash Wireless drive employs a general USB connection, thus users don’t have to carry a special cable or power adapter to use or recharge it. The SD-card support offers the ability to share files and media with numerous products based on SD-cards.
Matthew Klapman, CEO of Wearable Inc. commented, “We are extremely excited by the opportunity to bring AirStash to the retail market in partnership with such a well-respected brand as Maxell. The Maxell name stands for storage and media innovation that customers trust,” added Rich D’Ambrise, Director of New Business Development for Maxell, “Through our partnership with Wearable Inc., Maxell is taking a leadership position in wireless storage technology for a new generation of smartphones and tablets.”
This product claims to provide adaptability with wireless as well as USB operation. Users are enabled to transfer gigabytes of files at a faster rate, wirelessly or via USB with the security, reliability and ease of a standard USB drive. It allows users to store millions of movies, photos, music, eBooks and documents owing to its great expandability.
For the drive to function, the AirStash app is needed which is downloadable from the App store for free. The application has been crafted following requests of professional photographers and allows the drive users to browse and import pictures quickly with ease. Users can instantly browse photos up to 35MP straight from their camera’s SD card. This eliminates the waiting time of importing them. Pictures can even be imported at full resolution or reshaped to a space-saving resolution which goes with the device display. This makes professional in-field editing possible.
The Maxell AirStash wireless flash drive can be bought online from its official website for a price of $99.99.
