DRAM maker Kingston has launched quite an interesting flash drive and card reader combo called DataTraveler Micro Reader. This little USB 2.0-compatible device comes with its own on-board storage that reaches 1GB, 2GB or 4GB, depending on the model, plus an expansion slot that can read microSD, microSDHC, or Memory Stick Micro (M2) cards. The expansion slot makes the drive act as a card reader, but it also offers its user the possibility of expanding the overall memory space by adding a high-capacity card. The flash drive weights only 8.68 grams (without any memory card) and supports Windows Vista's ReadyBoost feature. Backed by a five year warranty, the DataTraveler Micro Reader will start shipping later this month in 1GB version with the 2GB and 4GB models set to follow soon. The suggested prices of the new drives are $19.25, $28.25 and $42 for the 1GB, 2GB and 4GB versions respectively.
