SanDisk Spins SD/USB Flash Combo

Posted by timothy on from the but-where-fit-the-bits? dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Flash memory pioneer SanDisk has created an innovative memory card packaging technology that enables memory cards to plug into both SD card slots and USB ports. The new approach eliminates the need to use SD-to-USB adapters when accessing the contents of an SD card on a laptop, PC, or other system that lacks an integrated SD card slot."

    I think this would be great after taking pics, when you've left your camera's cable somewhere else, and you want to email them from a notebook, PC, etc.

    >> woo. a pen drive, how innovative.

    a pen drive the size of a fricken postage stamp that happens to fit right inside my camera.

    I'm impressed. and looking forward to owning this - I find myself transferring pictures directly from the camera to a PC often, and it wastes charge on my batteries. This won't.

    So yeah, it is innovative.
