Kingston announces the second generation of their Mobilelite wireless…

Kingston Digital, Inc., the Flash memory affiliate of Kingston Technology Company, Inc., the independent world leader in memory products, today announced the MobileLite Wireless G2. Shipping later this month, MobileLite Wireless G2 allows smartphone and tablet users to extend onboard device storage and stream and share content with multiple users. Additionally, the ultra-portable MobileLite Wireless G2 has a 4640mAh 3.8v battery for mobile charging and a direct Ethernet port for wireless Internet routing, Wi-Fi bridging. The USB port also allows 3G dongle support.

Kingston’s new MobileLite Wireless G2 is the best solution for more mobile device storage capacity. Instead of deleting files from a smartphone or tablet to create room, users can wirelessly transfer photos, movies or music to a USB drive or Flash card. It’s perfect for entertainment or travel as pictures, videos, songs or documents can be shared and streamed with multiple users. In addition, photos and videos can be sent directly to the social media platform of choice without the need to connect to a PC.

On-the-go users will love the MobileLite Wireless G2 for its device charging and Ethernet-ready features. Fully charged, the internal battery of the MobileLiteWireless G2 is capable of charging most smartphones twice1. To enable users to stay constantly connected, the device supports a direct connection from a 3G wireless Internet dongle and also has a direct Ethernet connection thus allowing MobileLite Wireless G2 to serve both as a portable router or shared network (NAS) drive.

“MobileLite Wireless G2 is a great device to share pictures, movies, songs or files wirelessly with friends and family,” said Andrew Ewing, Flash memory business manager, Kingston®. “We have increased the battery life to up to 13 hours of continuous use so it works perfectly to keep your smartphone or tablet charged, or keep your children entertained on long trips.”

MobileLite Wireless G2 is backed by a two-year warranty and legendary Kingston reliability. For more information, please visit www.kingston.com.
