Kingston Technology Expands Popular USB Family With New Ultra-Small DataTraveler Mini with Migo
Bright Colors, Retractable Caps Add Character to Customizable Miniature USB Drives.

Fountain Valley, CA -- (January 8, 2007) -- Kingston Technology Company, Inc., the independent world leader in memory products today introduced the Kingston® DataTraveler® Mini – Migo® Edition. As the latest addition to Kingston’s family of miniature USB Flash drives, the DataTraveler Mini – Migo Edition uses the powerful Migo Software, Inc. (OTCBB:MIGO) technology to give consumers the ability to seamlessly transform any PC into a personalized workspace, making it one of the most convenient, customizable, multifunction USB drives on the market.

“The growing popularity of USB Flash drives makes them a must-have among students, consumers and even single-computer families,” said Joe Teng, Flash memory product manager, Kingston. “The new DataTraveler Mini – Migo Edition is an ultra-small personal storage device with character. It easily attaches to a keychain or can be strung on a cord. It’s the perfect device for swapping and storing personal files such as photos, homework or even e-mail messages.”

Measuring 0.70 x 1.42 x 0.40 inches, the new DataTraveler Mini – Migo Edition is a colorful alternative to traditional USB drives. Available in three colors, varying by capacity, the DataTraveler Mini – Migo Edition is available in red for the 512 MB, light blue for the 1 GB and light purple for the 2 GB version. A sliding retractable USB connector, or ‘capless’ design, eliminates the possibility of losing the cover during transport.

First to offer Migo technology with the DataTraveler II Plus Migo USB drive in July 2005, the DataTraveler Mini – Migo Edition automatically synchronizes data, keeps versions current and leaves no trace of personal data on other systems, giving consumers the freedom to work safely on multiple PCs.

The DataTraveler Mini – Migo Edition supports e-mail clients Microsoft Outlook Express® 5.0 and above, plus Mozilla Thunderbird® 1.5.0.5 and above. Microsoft Internet Explorer® settings, favorites, cookies and history can be captured and stored on the drive. Once reconnected with any previously synchronized computer, the Data Traveler Mini – Migo Edition automatically synchronizes and updates where necessary. Browser support includes Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.0 and above, plus Mozilla Firefox® 1.5 and above.

The 512MB and 1GB capacity DataTraveler Mini – Migo Edition drives are available now at leading retailers, major online sites and at www.kingston.com. The 2GB capacity will be available in February.
