Kingston makes great computer components such as memory kits and SSD drives. Now they are also doing wireless drives. These wireless drives provide additional memory to any device that has built-in Wi-Fi, and can use external devices such as cell phones and tablets. For devices like iPhones or iPads that do not have memory card slots for additional memory, these devices can make a huge difference. There are two different devices included by Kingston this year. The first one is their MobileLite Wireless. It has no build-in memory, but instead uses memory cards through its card slot, and has an MSRP of $59.99. The next one is their Wi-Drive and has no card slot, but instead uses 128 GB of internal memory, and has an MSRP of $179.99.  The MobileLite is scheduled for review the week of 12/1/13 and the Wi-Drive the week ending 12/22/13.  www.kingston.com.
