The ubiquity of technology has allowed digital products to deliver countless surprises and wonders to consumers. The humanization of technology and the powerful functions of multimedia have made life more convenient and enjoyable. The dimensions of digital storage devices are growing smaller in line with today's trend for compact and convenient yet powerful digital products. After the SDA surprised the public with its fingernail-sized microSD card, Samsung, in the first half of 2005, introduced the MMCmicro flashcard utilizing the new MMC4.X specification. As the name implies, this micro MMC is only one-third the size of the RS-MMC flashcard, and almost the size of a wafer. Its much-reduced size means that digital product manufacturers can save significant space in their products, and this will help to promote the compactness of digital products.

As the Buddhist sutra states, “one tiny grain of sand from the Ganges is like three thousand macro worlds in reality.” The idea behind this scripture will not be difficult to realize in today's world. The fingernail-sized MMCmicro flashcard has a R/W speed at 10MB/sec and 7MB/sec respectively. Theoretically speaking, the interface of the flashcard and mobile device can support a transfer speed of 26MB/sec. The new MMCmicro features a dual 1.8V or 3.3V voltage, which is much lower than most flashcards. It allows mobile phones to conserve their power for handling images, movies, and music.

At the international Computex 2005, Kingmax will introduce the world's first waterproof MMCmicro flashcard manufactured using exclusive PIP packaging technology, also from Kingmax, in order to let buyers across the globe to experience the wonder of the world's smallest flashcard.

Kingmax hopes that the global demand for MMC flashcards will continue to grow in 2005 and their leadership in the flashcard market continues to expand. Technological innovation and supremacy have always been Kingmax's operational philosophy. With its technical supremacy, Kingmax is always ready to supply premium quality mainstream products to consumers. While the MMCmicro will become the mainstream mobile storage solution, the micro card promoted by the SDA and MMCA is striving to become the standard of the next generation flashcard.
