IOGear Vista Smartlink USB adapter

IOGear has recently announced the Vista Smartlink USB adapter for those who are planning to transfer data from computers running different operating systems, namely Windows XP and Windows Vista.

Specially designed to work with Windows Easy Transfer, the Vista Smartlink USB Adapter boasts a USB 2.0 host-to-host link adapter that lets you transfer files and settings from an existing computer running on Windows XP/Vista to a new Vista-powered computer without going through the hassle of installing additional software. Some of the transferable items include user accounts, files, and program settings without the need to have a middleman data storage solution.

The Vista Smartlink USB adapter offers full compliance with USB Specification Versions 2.0 and 1.1, supporting a data transfer rate of up to 480Mbps for speedy transactions. Not only that, you get suspend and resume power management features that go a great length in helping keep power costs down - just imagine everyone using this on a large scale as the invididual effort might seem futile in the beginning.

Either USB port will be able to power the Vista Smartlink USB adapter, making this suitable for both notebook and desktop users in a small office or home environment. The Vista Smartlink USB adapter will be released within the next few weeks, retailing for $29.99.
