Ok, so the image is pretty misleading…there really aren’t that many images of the device yet.
The Seagate D.A.V.E. is a little portable hard disk which stores about 20Gb of stuff, that’s about 500 albums in iPod language. The exciting part is that it will also have bluetooth and WiFi built in, something which the iPod has been very shy about adding and which third parties have been incapable or unwilling to do.
This means you wont even need to remove the device from your pocket to load/unload it, no un-knotting, no crawling and no plugging. This means two devices can exchange files without a computer. This means (potentially, in the not too distant future) people can carry their operating systems around with them…computers can become dumb terminals again.
Oh yeah, the D.A.V.E. also has an API so crazy developers can do what they do best…we like Seagate!
This neat little device will apparently be officially shown off next week and released in the US in the summer for about $150, or dirt cheap if you are in the UK.
