Transcend Releases New Copy Protection SD/microSD Memory Cards

December 30 , 2011: Transcend Information, Inc., a worldwide leader in storage and multimedia products, today announced the launch of its new Copy Protection SD/microSD Memory Cards. By recording data in a CDROM style partition, Copy Protection SD/microSD cards ensure the safety of valuable intellectual property against unauthorized copy, modification, and deletion.

Guaranteed Protection
Exclusive ideas, creations, and artistic work are priceless assets, and essential to future business success. Including such materials in marketing campaigns requires an effective data management strategy to not only allow users to view the given content but also avoid possible duplication. As a result, Copy Protection SD/microSD memory cards guarantee protection of important media by storing audio and video files in a read-only partition, in a manner similar to a CD.

Maximum Defense
Pre-loading memory cards at the point of manufacture ensures data cannot be copied or deleted, removing the effect of sophisticated cracking tools and even reformatting. Moreover, the inability to write new data offers an extra level of security against a loaded virus, which may destroy files and spread infection to other computers. For ease of use, Transcend’s Copy Protection SD/microSD cards have been comprehensively tested for compatibility with most platforms, regardless of the host device software and hardware settings.

Customized Solutions


For added promotional value, Copy Protection SD/microSD cards can be adapted to provide partially protected and partially free areas, allowing users to save and modify files in the free space as per a normal memory card. This functional aspect generates regular viewing of marketing material, helping to build lifetime customer value and enhance the whole user experience.

Copy Protection SD cards are available by request in 2GB-64GB capacities. Copy Protection microSD cards are available by request in 2GB-16GB capacities. All are backed by Transcend’s limited lifetime warranty.

Lighting Science Group's New 60-Watt Equivalent Led World Bulb Receives Consumer Electronics Show Best of Innovations Award
Company's LED Bulb Breaks Efficiency and Value Paradigms by Providing a 35% Better Total Cost of Ownership vs. Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs)

New Delhi, December 07, 2011 - Lighting Science Group (OTCBB: LSCG), one of the world's leading LED lighting manufacturers, announced today that its new low cost World Bulb™—an omnidirectional 60-watt equivalent A19 LED bulb—being manufactured in partnership with Dixon Technologies India Pvt. Ltd, a world-class electronics products manufacturer in India, has been selected as a 2012 International CES Best of Innovations Design and Engineering Award Honoree. The Consumer Electronics Association's (CEA) International CES Innovations Awards recognize outstanding design and engineering advancements across 32 consumer electronics product groupings—Lighting Science Group's product was honored in the Eco-Design & Sustainable Technologies category. The World Bulb is planned for launch in early 2012 in India and will be rolled out to other countries throughout the remainder of the year.

"It's an honor to be recognized by CES as among the elite in consumer electronics, which further testifies to the superior quality and performance of our LED products," said Jim Haworth, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Lighting Science Group. "The World Bulb gives off a clean, bright light equivalent to that of a conventional 60-watt incandescent bulb, but while using 85% less electricity. Plus, the bulb provides a 35% lower total cost of ownership as compared with CFLs. True to its name, I expect that our award winning low cost A19 LED World Bulb will quickly become one of the best selling lighting products around the globe."

The CEA's 2012 International CES Best of Innovations honor is awarded to the products with the highest judges' scores and will be featured in the Innovations Design and Engineering Showcase at the 2012 International CES. The Best of Innovations are judged on overall engineering qualities related to technical specifications and materials, aesthetics and design qualities, the product's intended use and function, unique features and how the design and innovation of the product compares to others in the marketplace. The 2012 International CES, the world's largest consumer technology tradeshow, is scheduled to run January 10-13, 2012 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

At 9-watts of electricity use, the World Bulb is designed to handle the variable quality of power in India and other emerging economies around the world. Even compared with relatively efficient CFLs, the new bulb uses 35% less electricity and, unlike fluorescent lights, contains no toxic mercury. At a suggested retail price below $15, the World Bulb's payback from electricity savings versus incandescent should take approximately 8 months with a calculated lifetime of 17 years based on 8 hours a day of use

"With 800,000,000 incandescent light bulbs and 300,000,000 CFLs sold in India each year, the market is ripe for these highly efficient, long lasting and mercury-free LED bulbs," said Atul Lall, Deputy Managing Director of Dixon Technologies. "The economic and environmental implications of the World Bulb are significant: old-style light bulbs use 60 billion units of electricity each year, 7% of India's total annual electricity consumption, and this product could save over 70% of that, equivalent to 32 coal fired plants with 500MW capacity."

ZyXEL Introduces Complete HD Powerline Products
High-Speed Internet Connection Simply with Plugs

December 2, 2011;New Delhi, India- ZyXEL Communications, a world-class broadband networking company that provides leading Internet solutions for customers ranging from telecommunications service providers, small and medium-sized businesses to home users, today introduces the PLA4200 Series 500Mbps HD Powerline Product Family for home users, which can activate high-speed internet connections and high-definition media streaming at homes, simply by plugging the products into existing electrical power outlets. This all-in-one kit, with three designs of the powerline product series, brings flexibility and convenience to home users, allowing them to enjoy a high-quality multimedia streaming experience anywhere in the home.

Instead of wiring the house with network cables for intra-connection among several networking devices, Powerline products enable an instant Internet availability through expanded usage from an already existing electrical power grid. By simply plugging in the powerline product where there is a power outlet, the pervasive electrical power system will be instantaneously turned into a dual-power system with Internet connectivity on top of electrical power. Users can then connect computing devices to the powerline product to begin their fascinating Internet experience.

ZyXEL's new HD Powerline Product Family PLA4200 Series features an ultimate, speedy data transfer rate as high as 500Mbps and Gigabit Ethernet Technology, allowing users to enjoy various kinds of high-definition multimedia streaming, such as HD Internet TV and online gaming, in a latency-proof and highly reliable manner. Designed with Gigabit Ethernet technology, the Powerline Series ensures the unclogged and stable delivery of audio and video multimedia content without lag or distortion. Such "high-quality of service" (QoS) performance is specifically critical when deploying high-definition multimedia applications, such as Internet TV, Internet Radio, and on-line gaming.

While Internet connectivity brings much state-of-the-art excitement and convenience to people in their daily lives, cyber intrusions have also become a formidable threat to people's privacy and personal security. Uniquely designed with an encryption mode and with only a one-time activation, users are always kept protected against a variety of cyber threats. Also, in keeping with ZyXEL's commitment to a greener environment, as a corporate discipline, the Powerline 4200 Series features a 'Power-Saving-Mode', allowing users to avoid unnecessary power consumption when Ethernet cables are not connected, which saves up to 80% on power consumption.

In consideration of different usage requirements for different occasions at home, the all-in-one kit offers three selections - an adapter with one Ethernet port (PLA4205), one with four-port switch (PLA4225), as well as a dual-function adapter with an add-on power outlet (PLA4215). The options of one-port or four-port provides flexibility for family members, either to enjoy in privacy or to share exciting Internet experiences simultaneously with others; the PLA4215 is a special dual-function design, combing one Ethernet port and a power outlet on a single device. Users can enjoy Internet connectivity while being assured by an uninterrupted power supply.
