Kingston Technology Allows Users to Customize Look and Add Distinction to New USB Drive
DataTraveler Style USB Flash Drive Amazon.com Exclusive

CES Las Vegas, NV and Fountain Valley, CA — January 7, 2008 -- Kingston Technology Company, Inc., the independent world leader in memory products, today announced the DataTraveler® Style, a USB Flash drive that allows consumers to add a personal touch, is now available exclusively at Amazon.com.

“We’re excited and honored to work with Amazon.com and have them as the sole outlet for consumers to get our new drive,” said Joe Teng, Flash product manager, Kingston®. “The new DataTraveler Style is a chic way for users to customize their USB drives while using it to store and transport data. The drive doubles as a fashion accessory, giving users the ability to change colors and designs or add their own photo or message,” added Teng.

The DataTraveler® Style (Kingston part #: DTYLB) can be personalized via a special insert on the drive’s case to reflect the personality of its owner. The DT Style comes with six pre-printed labels: bamboo, lace, redhead mosaic, retro, sunflower and tangerine dream.

Once printed, the personalized label slides easily into the clear cover.

The drive’s capless design adds to its convenience. An easy-to-use ‛thumb-action slider’ extends and retracts the USB connector. The DataTraveler Style comes with a five-year warranty and Kingston’s legendary 24/7 technical support.
