msystems has announced FlashDisc, a flash-based personal storage device with a USB interface. The FlashDisc comes in 16 or 32 Mb capacities, and is promoted as an affordable way to share files after the decline of floppy disks. msystems president and CEO Dov Moran calls it "a floppy reincarnated in USB flash drive form."
The company says a FlashDisc can be used to store and share about 400-800 documents, 10-20 presentations, 40-80 photos or 15-30 minutes of music.
FlashDisc will be available in stores by the end of April.
