Transfer Jets is a short-range, high-speed wireless data transmission system intended as a replacement for cables.
A technology not soo costly, and not soo far see. The Toshiba Transfer Jet technology that enables file transfers between devices on a meare touch and that to at a speed upto 560Mbps.
It’s Toshiba’s turn to take over from where Sony left off. Toshiba says it’s ready to shove the wireless transfer technology inside laptops and is about to provide this piece of technology as soon as by the end of 2009.
Transfer Jet allows ridiculously swift data transfers without wires, and can be activated simply by moving two gadgets close together. When it’s here all you’ll have to do is plonk a couple of enabled devices within 3cm of each other, and then they’ll blast information between them at up to 560Mbps.
Toshiba has shown it sending photos from a handheld device to a TV in seconds and syncing a PDA with a laptop just by placing it on top of the wrist rest.
Last year, Sony showed camcorders offloading footage to PCs using the technology, and its uses are practically unlimited.
We first heard Sony talking about Transfer Jet, the Near Field Communication standard, at the beginning of last year but now we’ve actually seen it in action.
The first Toshiba laptops with Transfer Jet will be out in the first quarter of next year, while similar Sony devices will be coming “soon”.
