PNY launches another tiny HP USB flash drive

PNY Technologies Inc. presented us with the v112b last month, and now the worldwide leading manufacturer of DRAM and Flash memory product has once again introduced a new product through their authorized HP partnership. The v240b and v240g are two new flash drives following the minuscule profile that was seen in the v112b.

The elegant design means to symbolize the tidiness and coherent professional feeling making it perfect for business people. Available in two colours – blue and green – it comes in no-nonsense plastic casing.

With a rugged body and a potective cap, the USB is protected from dust, water, and shock thanks to its strong polymer body. The keyhole on the cap allows to attach a lanyard to avoid losing your data by attaching it to you purse, keychain or other safe ‘attachment point.’

The COB packaging gives the drive its small dimension of 7 x16 x 31 mm as well as its weight of 4.2 grams, making it an ultra portable data storing device.

Capacities start from a common 2GB to whooping 32GB, including 4,8 and 16GB in between. Through a USB 2.0 interface, read and write speeds reach up to 18MB/s and 8MB/s respectively.

The v240b/v240g come with a two year warranty and is compatible with Windows 2000, XP, Vista 7 as well as Mac OS 10.3 and above.

Pricing and availability have yet to be announced.
