Pegatron can be a subsidiary of Asus, but the Medion Akoya Mini E2076 provides a range sexier than all the Asus brand nettop. On the inside, it packs a 1.6 GHz Intel Atom 230 CPU and NVIDIA graphics and a 160 GB to 320 GB hard drive, 1 GB of RAM, WiFi, and 6 USB ports.

On the one hand, I’m impressed with how Kingson Heck, the new DataTraveler 300 USB flash drive can store a whopping 256 GB data. On the other hand, it costs $ 900, which is pretty much useless … for now.
Of course, if it is one thing we have learned on flash media in recent years is that prices fall very rapidly. I still remember paying nearly $ 50 for my first 32 MB Compact Flash card.
Kingston new card features read speeds of up to 20 MB per second and data rates of up to 20MB per second. It measures 2.78 “x 0.88″ x 0.65 “. And Kingston has been kind enough to let us know that the flash drive can be the equivalent of 10 Blu-ray discs, 54 DVDs or 365 CDs. The 256 GB Kingston Data Traveler 300 is initially in Europe. No word if when he is in the U.S.. I hope there will be a bit cheaper at the time it does.
