"USB flash drives have grown into a billion dollar market. More than 54 million were sold worldwide last year, up from less than 2 million in 2001," according to the research firm Gartner Dataquest. "Sales are expected to top 100 million in 2006." "Until now, moving photos from digital cameras and memory cards or transferring files between USB devices required connecting a camera or USB flash drive to a computer. While this is not a particularly difficult process, the USB Copy Cruiser Plus has made it an unnecessary, time-consuming nuisance. With the USB Copy Cruiser Plus, we believe we have successfully made life easier for our Prosumer users," stated Perry Solomon, President and CEO. "From the digital photographer caught with a full memory card when there are more pictures to be taken, to the growing numbers of USB flash drive users looking for an easy way to transfer and exchange information, the benefits of the USB Copy Cruiser Plus span the broadest range of users." The USB Copy Cruiser Plus uses PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol) developed by the International Imaging Industry Association to allow the transfer of images from digital cameras to computers and other peripheral devices without needing additional device drivers. With the USB Copy Cruiser Plus you can copy photos directly from your digital camera to your USB flash drive without removing the photo memory card. Your camera's photo memory card can be erased and made ready for more pictures anywhere, anytime since the USB Copy Cruiser Plus is battery powered and shirt pocket portable. It only weighs 4.3 ounces with the batteries. PTP is supported by most popular digital cameras including Canon, Fuji, Kodak, Nikon, Olympus, and Sony. The USB Copy Cruiser Plus (Aleratec Part No. 330100, Ingram Micro SKU G36907) , has a low Estimated Street Price of $79.99 (batteries not included) making this powerful tool easily affordable for any digital photographer or anyone that needs an easy and portable way to share data and multimedia files. USB Copy Cruiser Plus includes a built-in 8 in 1 memory card reader/writer that supports CF (Type I and II), SD, SM, MMC, MS, MSPRO, and MD. You can plug memory cards directly in the USB Copy Cruiser Plus and copy them to USB devices. This is particularly useful if for some reason you cannot read a flash memory card directly from a camera. The USB Copy Cruiser Plus can copy directly from one USB flash drive to another USB flash drive or using the memory card reader/writer it can copy memory card to memory card or USB flash drive to memory card and vise versa, or to or from either one to a USB Hard Drive, so exchanging files, photos and music is quick and easy, even with your MP3 player or PDA.
