Panasonic 48GB and 64GB SDXC memory cards
January 20, 2010
Panasonic has just released its 48GB and 64GB SDXC memory cards alongside a USB card reader which is capable of handling the SDXC format with aplomb. You will find that both cards come in the Class10 speed range, enabling it to hit a whopping 22MB/sec. The 48GB card is capable of storing slightly more than half a dozen hours of full HD video footage in AVCHD format, while the larger capacity model is able to hit 8.5 hours in a similar format. We're pretty certain backing up the card is going to be a pain in the rear, particularly when it is filled to the brim. Expect these new Panasonic memory cards to reach in Japan that February 19th. The 48GB, 64GB and USB reader will retail for $550, $700 and $55, respectively.

ioGear USB 3.0 PCI Express Card
January 8, 2010
[CES 2010] ioGear has a prototype USB 3.0 PCI Express Card in the works, but it isn't going to hit the mainstream market anytime soon as their engineers are still working on it. Ten times faster theoretically compared to a USB 2.0 connection, it is capable of hitting 5Gbps when transferring info, and good thing it does not discriminate against USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices. We suppose that will only roll out when USB 3.0 peripherals become mainstream.
