by David on March 30, 2005

Wn0205finger_c700x400_3Lexar’s new 256MB Jumpdrive Touchguard USB drive has a built in capacitive sensor that you just swipe your finger across to access up to 200 user names and passwords, web site login information and browser favorites. The AES 256-bit encryption software that is included allows you to encrypt or decrypt any file on your computer or on the drive.

Included is a USB extension cable and an interactive tutorial

to help organize your data. See this graphic
