Kingston Wi-Drive MobileLite Wireless Card Reader Preview

So you bought a tablet or smart phone and have buyer's remorse because you're realizing it doesn't quite have the capacity you need. Not to worry, Kingston has a product coming up that should fill that need. It's a mobile wireless SD card/USB reader and effectively makes your storage limited only by your availability of SD cards or USB drives! Have a look at our preview of this upcoming product!

While at CES 2013 last month, Kingston shared with us a new but related product that they'll be rolling and asked if we could give our feedback prior to going live with production. It puts a twist on the Wi-Drive which comes with its own built-in solid state storage, by substituting this self-contained storage with SD card slots and a USB port so the user can add their own storage – effectively making storage capacity options limitless. From this plug and play media, you can access or stream content to your iOS (5.1.1+) or Android device.

Couple questions/requests. How much does this thing weigh? How big is it (dimensions)? It's hard to tell how big it is without anything to scale it against. The same is said for SSD drives. You forget how small they are just looking at pictures of them on a screen.

Good point...I'll throw some info into the article when I get home tonight. Of course, being a beta product, it's subject to change.
