iTwin presents an all new way of syncing data using USB
September 15th, 2009 by Annkur
iTwin is a USB gadget that brings you an all new concept of ‘cableless cable’. The device has two parts that can be plugged into two different systems and used to sync data securely without installing any software or using a login id. It gets interesting with the bit that the two systems might be anywhere around the world after the device has synced a private key! Now thats really 007 style gadget, isn’t it?
While I am not sure if this thing requires an active internet connection or something on both systems to work, it seem so. For now I would be happy to have something around $25 that can just let me plug two USB sticks to any gadget (say a camera and my laptop) and sync it.
If you lose the device, you can text iTwin to turn off the other half or you can set a password between the two. The company gets around company firewalls by sending the encrypted data through iTwin’s back-end. [Venture Beat]
Revealed at TechCrunch50, its makers plan to launch iTwin sometime in first half of 2010 and retail for $99. All the best guyz!

nice gadget.
$100 to do something you can do for free. Okay.
Good Luck to the makers…they will need it.
From what I saw on their webpage, you need computers to be powered up on both sides! That is not environmentally friendly.
