(NAPSI)-Laptop computers have made it so much easier to stay connected with friends, family and co-workers from practically anywhere in the world.
But getting around the world -and through security checkpoints at airports-with a laptop is not quite as easy.
Fortunately, new technology makes it possible to take the information stored on your laptop and not have to deal with any of the burden of actually carrying the laptop. Limited carry-on baggage restrictions will be less daunting if you don't have to factor in carrying the laptop.
The product, known as a USB flash drive, makes it possible to take work-related documents, favorite music tracks, vacation photos, video clips, games and all kinds of useful information stored on your laptop.
Information On The Go
These flash drives contain the essential content a laptop can store but in a device so small that it fits easily inside a pocket or on a key chain.
One flash drive that's increasingly popular is the DataTraveler, manufactured by Kingston Technology, which also makes computer modules as well as flash memory cards for digital cameras, mobile phones.
The new DataTraveler® II Plus-Migo® Edition USB flash drive gives users the ability to take their desktop with them, so they can use a PC virtually anywhere in the world to access personal e-mail, files and folders, Internet browser settings, favorites, cookies and history.
The preloaded software allows users to store important information so that anyone can work the way they like-on any computer-without ever leaving a trace of personal data behind. Upon returning to the home or office, the computer user simply connects the USB drive to the host computer to automatically synchronize content created "on the road."
More Capacity
The drives are available in several capacities. For users who simply want to transport less, a 1GB capacity drive should be fine. For others who need to carry around large data files as well as photographs, music and videos, the Migo Edition is available at up to 8GB.
Whether you're traveling on business or pleasure, bringing your favorite music, photos and work documents just got a lot easier, and you can expect to quickly navigate right through security checkpoints with a lot less stress.
