Iomega Corporation announced the new Iomega eGo Leather Portable Hard Drive, the new luxury "must have" gadget and the perfect on-the-go portable storage device for today's business executives and fashionistas alike. Take files anywhere, in a custom leather style, with the Iomega eGo Portable Hard Drive USB 2.0, 250GB - now available in a brown genuine leather wrapped enclosure which includes Drop Guard to withstand the toughest of travel environments. Available in 250GB capacity, it holds up to 1,000,000 photos, over 4,625 hours of music and 375 hours of video. Plus, the Iomega eGo Portable Hard Drive requires no external power supply and includes a free EMC Retrospect HD backup software license.
The 250GB leather-bound Iomega eGo Drive introduces a whole new way for tech enthusiasts and the in-fashion crowd to express themselves. The rich brown leather-wrapped drive stands out as the creme de la creme of portable storage devices, whether on the road, strutting the proverbial "cat walk," or displaying panache in the boardroom. Above all else, the new eGo Leather Drive gives users a fast, powerful tool for preserving and transporting files.
Beneath the beautiful leather exterior is a state-of-the-art USB-powered portable hard drive, bringing elegance and efficiency to the critical task of backing up laptop and desktop data. Since it is USB-powered, the 2.5-inch drive is simple to operate (no power supply to carry around), and it comes as a complete storage solution with a license for EMC Retrospect HD software for automatic backups, scheduled backups, or on-demand backups. With its 250GB of storage capacity, the new eGo Leather Portable Hard Drive holds up to 1,000,000 photos, over 4,625 hours of music or 375 hours of video**.
The leather may look soft but the latest edition to Iomega's eGo product line is nothing if not rugged. Iomega's DropGuard technology protects the eGo Leather Drive from accidental damage caused by drops of up to 51 inches (129 cms), compared to portable hard drives from other manufacturers that claim drops of less than 40 inches.
"Around the world the Iomega eGo Portable Hard Drive has been recognized for its beautiful industrial design, and this leather-bound edition brings a new esthetic of luxury and opulence to the necessity of storing and protecting your digital life," said Tom Kampfer, president, Iomega Corporation. "Why continue to buy cold and impersonal computer hardware when you can truly separate yourself from the crowd with an Iomega eGo Drive in bright colors and now a leather model, too. And let's not kid ourselves - looks definitely count. Anyone one who loves leather and projecting a certain 'in vogue' lifestyle won't be able to resist showing off their eGo Leather Drive."
The Iomega eGo Leather Portable Hard Drive is compatible with Mac OS X 10.1 or higher and with Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional, Windows XP, and Windows Vista. EMC Retrospect HD backup software is available for download for PC only. More information about price and availability can be found at http://www.iomega.com .
