With the explosion in the amount of microSD cards being used in devices large and small, from cameras to phones, a problem is faced to anyone trying to fit a microSD card into a device too big or too small : Unless you’ve got a USB port to run a reader through, you’re trying to square a circle with a lump hammer.

So Kingston has launched a special microSD card with dual adapter bundle, consisting of a 1 GB microSD card, a microSD to miniSD card adapter and a microSD to full size SD card adapter ; thus allowing small SD cards to fit into big readers and vice versa.

Kingston points out that it’s a win-win for consumers and retailers, with consumers getting more bang for their buck ; and retailers have less stock to worry about. Aren’t Kingston thoughtful ?

The adapter is Kingston part number # : (SDC/1GB-2ADP) ; and is priced at $39.99 (MSRP) in the US and £10.60, (plus VAT) in the UK ; and is backed by a lifetime warranty for the 1 GB microSD card and 24/7 technical support. One can only imagine the questions that will be asked of tech support on this one...
