DAVE Wireless HDD Available For Symbian Smartphones
Posted February 20th, 2007 by Marius TrusculescuA new step toward bringing more storage on mobile phones has been made in Barcelona last week as more details on Seagate’s DAVE technology were made public. Apparently the device will be compatible with Symbian powered smartphones and all devices running the S60 3rd edition version of the OS (operating system) and UIQ 3 UIs (user interfaces).
Announced earlier this month, the DAVE project promises to deliver a 10-20 GB hard drive which can connect via Bluetooth to your mobile phone. Due to its small size and light weight it can be kept in any pocket and the phone will transfer the data from and towards the drive trough a Bluetooth wireless connection.
On the mobile devices market the race between magnetic storage and flash based storage is clearly taking off as a new microSD card supporting up to 4 GB of data was also launched in Barcelona by SanDisk.
