    Cake Decorator Takes Flash Drive Photograph a Bit Too Literally

    Note to anyone buying a custom cake: Always print the picture you'd like recreated in frosting. Never just hand over a USB drive expecting things to work themselves out. [Cake Wrecks via The Raw Feed]

    An Extensive, Obsessive Performance Test Of... USB Keys?

    Test Freaks wrangled as many flash drives as they could and ran them through an oddly intense testing regime, finding out that your choice in USB stick brand may actually matter. More »

    Eye-Fi Share Gets Lexar Branding

    That Eye-Fi technology we were so gung ho about a few months back, the one which adds Wi-Fi to any digital camera, has found a new home in Lexar. The memory card giant is churning out a 2GB Shoot-n-Sync WiFi SD card that works exactly the same as the Eye-Fi Share. But with the Lexar branding, I guess these cards will be guaranteed a much larger audience. They'll be available in October for $99. More »

    Hands-On With Lexar's JumpDrive Secure II Plus with Encryption and Capacity Meter

    Lexar's JumpDrive Secure II Plus brings the e-ink capacity meter previously seen in their other drives and the 256-bit AES encryption previously seen in the JumpDrive Secure II. The result? Something pretty convenient and secure, not to mention that it's the cheapest drive they have that has the e-ink capacity display. More »

    First Review: Lexar ExpressCard SSD

    Lexar's ExpressCard solid state drive is an interesting proposition: 4 to 16 gigabytes of non-volatile memory in a slot form factor. That's not only more storage than typical USB flash drives can offer, but more than most based on microdrives can, too. For those with lappies with ExpressCard slots, it would seem like a sweet piece of storage, and even as a cache for Vista's ReadyBoost, since its not hanging off the side of a laptop like a USB thumbdrive would. So what's the catch? More »

    Lexar's UDMA High Speed CF Cards For Theoretical Cameras

    Playing catchup to the high speed SDHC flash format, Lexar's releasing a professional UDMA version of the ComactFlash format designed for high speed writing for photogs. This allows quick, successive snaps to be saved, which in turn lets you pick out the exact frame that Britney's PR people's smiles turned into shock-horror when they realized she was shaving her head.

    Lexar Does Custom Engraving on Flash Drives

    Remember when Apple was doing custom engravings on iPods for free back in the day and everyone was giving and receiving iPods with cheesy stuff engraved? Yeah, that idea is back, but from Lexar. Lexar is offering up this absurdly overpriced 1GB JumpDrive for $80, but you can get it custom engraved up to 20 characters, which isn't near enough letters to say "I gave you the clap so here is a flash drive to make up for it," but semi-cool nonetheless.

    Lexar JumpDrive Recall

    About 66,000 of the JumpDrive FireFly and JumpDrive Secure II drives are being recalled due to possible overheating and burning. There no actual incidents of burning or injury, so this is more of a precautionary measure. More »

    Lexar JumpDrive Mercury

    Lexar's newest addition to its USB flash drives at CES is the JumpDrive Mercury. If you've ever had a problem with knowing how much storage space you have left on your drive, this Mercury takes care of that with an integrated capacity meter. In fact, this meter gives you the info you want without ever having to be plugged into your PC. The display, created by E Ink Corp, is paper-thin and unbreakable (for klutzes like me). The drive will come in 1GB and 2GB capacities. Also look for the JumpDrive Firefly, which is smaller and comes in 256MB, 512MB, and 1GB capacities.

    Google and Lexar Demand Your Attention

    Guess what? Google loves you SO much. So much that they demand you use their software for searching wherever you go. So now they've partnered with Lexar to ensure that happens. Some new Lexar USB Drives will be available with Google software that will automatically ask users if they want to install it when inserting the USB drive into a PC. Once they're done and remove the drive, the software automatically uninstalls and everything is back to normal. Included software will feature Picasa, Google Toolbar and Google Desktop Search, which are all pretty useful, to be honest. I just think it's a bit creepy since you can just download them all anyway. Look for Lexar-Google products later this month or in early February. More »

    Lexar Shows All Kinds of Memory Stuff at CES

    Now that we can finally store more than some crappy pictures on our cellphones and PDAs, it makes sense that we get more digital media made specially for these products. Lexar's new line of SD and MMC form factors are being shown off at CES and though not the sexiest of stuff, it can certainly be of some help with your computer files, games, music, video and images. SD cards include built-in security applications for storing and playing secure content and come in capacities from 256MB to 2GB, MiniSD cards are half the size of conventional SD cards and include an adaptor for use in all SD products (in capacities from 256MB to 1GB), and MicroSD cards are perfect for the mobile phone and also include an adaptor so they can be used in all SD products (in capacities from 256MB to 512MB). Then you've got MMCmobile MMCplus universal cards at that also include an adaptor for use in all SD or MultiMediaCard products (in capacities from 256MB to 512MB) and finally the MMCmicro, which offer the same high-performance as the MMCplus universal cards at a quarter of the size (in capacities from 256 MB to 512 MB).

    Lexar Thinks For Pros

    If you're a professional photographer or just use your camera as if you were, the new Lexar Media Professional CompactFlash Reader takes all your needs into consideration. The reader itself is pretty rugged looking and includes a LED to let you know when transfers are done. The same LED also acts as a card ejector and Lexar says using the product is a one-hand deal. Cause god forbid you had to use both hands. Horrors! Read and write speed perfomance is a quick 10MB per second. Other new readers include a 32-bit card reader, multi-card reader and portable card-reader. More »

    Lexar JumpDrive Secure, the Sequel

    Got some files you need to tote around? Or maybe you need to move it and dump it quickly. More security than you could ever ask for and a File Shredder feature to delete files without a "digital trail." That's what Lexar is promising with its new JumpDrive SECURE II USB flash drive. With 256 AES encryption for safety and a really easy interface (using drag and drop), this new USB drive encourages simplicity, safety and privacy for encrypting and decrypting files. The updated version is also half the size of the original and works on PC and Mac platforms. Comes in 256MB, 512MB and 1GB right now but expect a 2GB version in November.

    Lexar LDP-200 (Verdict: Simple)

    While flash memory players aren t really our bag, this Lexar seems to do a basic job of things. It is a simple and basic MP3 player that generally would be marketed to the more casual MP3 listener. The initial shocker is that this MP3 player is only $49 for the version not including a memory card. Own an SD card? Don't own any MP3 players? Looks like this is your man. More »
