New microSD to mini-, Standard-size SD Bundle Simplifies Multiple Card Formats for Mobile Users
Fountain Valley, CA -- (January 8, 2007) -- Kingston Technology Company, Inc., the independent
world leader in memory products, today announced it is launching a special microSD card with dual
adapter bundle to maximize compatibility and interoperability of microSD Flash memory cards among
multiple device platforms. Given the myriad of Flash memory formats available to digital device
manufacturers and the gain in popularity of the tiny microSD form factor with sleeker multifunction
mobile phones, the new dual adapter pack is the first of its kind to offer increased flexibility for using
microSD cards at a cost savings to consumers.
With microSD cards being utilized in many multifunction handsets, we saw an opportunity to
create a very practical product costing considerably less than buying three different memory card
formats of the same capacity that helps people get the most out of their phones microSD cards. Now,
consumers can use the miniSD or standard SD card adapter with a microSD card to enjoy music, pictures
and videos or easily transport files from the mobile phone to an MP3 player, digital camera, PC or
printer, said Jean Wong, Flash memory product manager, Kingston. The new Kingston microSD dual
adapter pack lets consumers do more with a single card investment and provides a win-win to retailers
with fewer SKUs to stock, continued Wong.

SD card adapter, the new microSD dual adapter pack, Kingston part number #: (SDC/1GB-2ADP), is
priced at $39.99 (MSRP U.S.) and is backed by a lifetime warranty for the 1 GB microSD card and 24/7
