Known as a leader in the Flash storage business, SanDisk is taking its first step into wireless territory with the release of two Wi-Fi-based storage devices.
The Connect Wireless Flash Drive and the Connect Wireless Media Drive join the already-impressive lineup of standard storage devices from SanDisk. CNet reports that they "use flash memory as their storage, have a built-in battery and a 802.11n Wi-Fi network, and support multiple Wi-Fi clients at one time. They can also relay the Internet access by connecting to another Wi-Fi network and share that network's Internet connection to all the devices that are connected to the Wi-Fi network of their own."
Both drives are expected to hit shelves in September. The Connect Wireless Flash Drive will run $50 and $60 for 16GB and 32GB. The Connect Wireless Media Drive costs $80 for 32GB and $100 for 64GB.

It’s natural for children to want to move, jump around, burn off some of their extra, seemingly boundless energy. It’s also apparent that children (and adults) are more distracted than ever. We all need tools to help us focus.
Movement is good—but researchers are finding that movement coupled with mindful intention, for instance, becoming...

After the Pandemic: “We will return to physical workplaces and face-to-face training because it is indispensable."
