Sydney, Australia – December 14, 2011 – Kingston, the independent world leader in memory products, today announced the launch of the DataTraveler Micro – one of the world’s smallest USB Flash drives. The DataTraveler Micro is designed in an ultra-small form factor that can be left in devices such as tablet PCs, slim notebooks, netbooks or car audio systems while on the move. The drive’s light weight and compact size easily adds up to 16GB of extra storage to a device without increasing its footprint. It is simple to use and just needs to be connected to any device with a USB port. DataTraveler Micro blends in easily without blocking other controls and is simple to use for storing, transferring and sharing photos, videos, music and other favorite files while on the move.

“Kingston’s DataTraveler Micro is a versatile USB Flash drive that is perfect for use with different devices such as tablets that have a USB port or in slim notebooks. Due to its small size, it is also convenient to be left plugged in while on the go,” said Nathan Su, Flash Memory Sales Director, APAC Region, Kingston.
