Kingston Technology has launched the MobileLite 9-in-1 USB card reader that helps mobile consumers navigate multiple expansion memory card formats more easily when moving between mobile phones, digital cameras, PCs and portable media devices.

Three Secure Digital (SD) Flash memory card bundles join the MobileLite release: a 1GB standard SD card combo pack is available now and 1GB microSD and 2GB SD bundles will follow later this quarter.

"There are so many flash memory card formats currently used by different digital devices that the Kingston MobileLite will be a welcome tool that simplifies managing digital content between one's cell phone, digital camera, PC and MP3 player," said Wendy Lecot, flash marketing manager of Kingston. "With nine different card reading options, MobileLite makes moving and accessing music, video, image and data files between cards and devices quick and easy – via one convenient reader."

The new MobileLite USB Reader works with nine different memory card formats: microSD; miniSD; full-size Secure Digital; SDHC; MMCmicro; MMCmobile, RS-MMC; MMCplus; and full-size MMC. When in use, MobileLite appears as three drive letters (for example G:\, H:\ and I:\) and data transfer is as simple as drag and drop.
