features for the FireWire KeyChainTM, a high speed, portable FireWire<br />
(IEEE1394) keychain-sized storage device which supports capacities of up to<br />
1GB using nonvolatile CompactFlash storage modules. FireWire KeyChain's<br />
physical dimensions have been reduced, and it is user configurable and will<br />
ship without a storage module installed for a retail price of $99.95.<br />
CompactFlash modules are easy to install to meet desired capacity needs.</p>
<p>The FireWire KeyChain now offers these outstanding features:</p>
<p>In response to customer input at the Macworld Expo show in early January,<br />
James Wiebe, president of WiebeTech, said that significant features have<br />
been added to the revolutionary FireWire KeyChain. WiebeTech<br />
introduced FireWire KeyChain at Macworld along with its new line of micro<br />
storage solutions. FireWire KeyChain is the industry's smallest portable,<br />
self-powered firewire storage device, using the Oxford Semiconductor<br />
911bridge interface for fastest possible transfer rates.</p>
<p>=93We listened to potential users of the product and have improved the<br />
product offering in order to satisfy their requests for user configurable<br />
units and even more compact size,=94 Wiebe said.</p>
<p>o USER CONFIGURABLE UP TO 1GB. FireWire KeyChain accepts readily available<br />
CompactFlash storage modules, which may be installed by the dealers or user<br />
by removing the bottom plate of FireWire KeyChain and inserting the desired<br />
capacity.</p>
<p>o FIREWIRE KEYCHAIN WILL SHIP WITHOUT A STORAGE MODULE. As a<br />
result, dealers and users will be able to configure FireWire KeyChain with<br />
the correct storage capacity to meet their needs.</p>
<p>o REDUCED SIZE. FireWire KeyChain's physical size has been reduced. This<br />
makes the module easier to carry in a pocket and attach to a KeyChain. New<br />
dimensions are: 1.75" x 2.35" x 0.75" (45mm x 60mm x 19mm).</p>
<p>o RETAIL PRICE OF $99.95. The retail price of FireWire KeyChain has been<br />
set at $99.95. This low price point will allow users to configure very<br />
powerful, nonvolatile portable FireWire storage using inexpensive,<br />
commodity CompactFlash storage modules. CompactFlash modules are readily<br />
available in many different capacities up to 1GB, and prices for these<br />
tough, powerful storage modules are quickly falling. As a result, the<br />
storage value for users of FireWire KeyChain is excellent.</p>
<p>o MARCH AVAILABILITY. FireWire KeyChain is expected to commence customer<br />
deliveries before the end of March.</p>
<p>In the U.S. and Canada, FireWire KeyChain may be purchased from dealers.<br />
FireWire KeyChain is also available directly from <a href="http://wiebetech.com" title="http://wiebetech.com">http://wiebetech.com</a>.<br />
