And when we say "disguised", we're not just talking about the stick's size, but its functionality as well -- it lets you wirelessly transfer files direct from from your WiFi-equipped laptop's hard drive to just about anything with a USB port."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1290786051.usr20447.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>The idea certainly has merit, especially for devices that do not normally talk to a network, but the implementation sounds pretty bad. Also, more and more devices are coming with WiFi built in, and with standards like DLNA becoming more popular, I have to wonder if the Infinitec Infinite USB Memory Drive will find enough of a market. I know that this is one device I will pass on when it comes to home networking. Does anyone know of a better alternative? Something like a generic, all device version of the eye-Fi?</p>
