The reader is the perfect solution for regional professionals or multimedia users to move data between Flash cards and a computer or other device with a USB port as it requires no adapters or power cable.
'The new media reader handles so many different card types that it's ideal for the consumer or business professional in the Middle East who uses multiple card formats to transfer data, music, photos, videos and other files between mobile phones, cameras, PCs and other devices,' said Antoine Harb, Business Development Manager for Kingston Technology Middle East and Africa.
'Regionally we're seeing intensive sharing of files for both professional and leisure use, and the compact size of Kingston's new media reader makes it easy to carry while traveling or keeping on the desktop for quick access.'
With four built-in slots to handle the various card formats, the Kingston Media Reader (Kingston part #: FCR-HS219/1) has a unique retractable chassis that keeps inserted cards safe. It also houses a short, compact USB cable for use on the go with a notebook or other portable device with a USB port. A detachable three-foot extension USB cable is also included for use at home or at the office.
