These convenient, reliable, rugged and lightweight standardized data carriers store up to 64 Mbytes, sufficient for 64 minutes of MP-3 digital music, or approximately 40,000 book pages. The MultiMediaCard has a wide variety of uses in some of the most exciting products on the market today. Mobile phones in use today typically are little more than a device to make and receive calls.
Most pagers simply alert their owners to call a certain phone number.
These limitations are due largely to small storage capability in mobile phones and pagers. MultiMediaCards bring true mass storage capability to mobile phones and pagers. With this new Flash card technology, faxes, voice and e-mail messages, Internet files and software applications all can be downloaded to the new memory card and accessed on mobile phones and pagers. MultiMediaCards permit the transmission of the entire text of news stories and financial reports to mobile phones or pagers. Financial information on virtually every publicly traded company can be stored in a single, high-density card, and updated quickly.
