Save Your Mobile Phone Data with DAVE
This post was published 2 years 8 months 5 days ago and its content may not be valid anymore.
Mobile phones are more and more holding more important data, and backing up this information is more and more important. Verizon Wireless has a contacts backup application, but what about all your pictures and videos? Segates Dave is a dedicated 10GB or 20GB mobile phone drive. It will feature Bluetooth, Wi-fi and a USB port to transfer data between Dave to your phone. Not slated to be released until the end of the year, I can see this drive being a HUGE seller and a estimated price of $200.
My phone has bluetooth… but my PC doesn’t. So if it conects to the PC through USB (so that I can double backup, why not :D) then count me in
Thats a great idea. I just had a friend who’s phone was rendered useless after being dropped into a puddle. She lost all her photos, contacts videos etc. She coulda used something like this.
Damn shame verizon disables the OBEX in their mobile phones, dave
The people who are /willing/ to spend $200 for a backup device like this most likely already use a real backup option: syncing with your computer, be it through a USB cable or bluetooth dongle (which is far, far, far cheaper than $200).
Good idea, way too expensive. Should’ve been solid state.
spell seagate right … its seagate not segate!
