Typing on the go? There's a keyboard for that. Verbatim has just launched a new Bluetooth keyboard aimed at those who need something portable. Mostly for use with tablets -- like the iPad, Galaxy Tab, Xoom, etc. It's called the Ultra-Slim Bluetooth Keyboard, and it pretty much does what it says. Users can play, pause and control iTunes music directly from the keyboard’s media console, and the Enhanced Smart Keys offer a simpler way to cut, copy, paste and undo. It maintains a low profile, and there's a built-in rechargeable power source and a USB charging port to boot. Verbatim’s Ultra-Slim Bluetooth Keyboard is available now at NewEgg for $49.99.

Looking for a cutting-edge mouse? Verbatim's new Ergo Mouse isn't exactly bleeding-edge tech, but it certainly has the angles to fit the "cutting" descriptor. The Ergo Mouse has one of the sharpest curves of any ergonomic mouse, with a candy apple-red shell, a 2.4GHz wireless transceiver (no cord!), Mac / PC platform compatibility and a small USB nub that seems tiny enough to actually leave in the PC owners will be using it with. There's a rubberized grip to keep things steady during those long gaming sessions, and it also ships in blue and black if red's just too loud. The mouse operates on two AAA batteries (included) and is available for $29.99 at Amazon.com, Staples (Canada) and national...

It's not unusual these days to see an aftermarket car stereo with a USB port. Most of these players have USB sockets in order to give users the ability to easily load up MP3 files that they may have stored on a thumb drive, but the issue that most run into has nothing to do with the player -- it's the drive. A typical USB thumb drive is pretty long -- at least 2 or 3 inches -- and with that sticking out of your dash, all it takes is one accident to rip your drive in two. Verbatim is helping to solve that problem with their Store 'n' Go USB car audio drives. These mini USB thumb drives are incredibly small, and are about the size of Logitech's Unifying receiver nub. The company claims that these...

If you're the type that archives everything, heads-up. And if you're the type that archives everything, only to want to re-write it days later, double heads-up. In reality, we see limited use for re-writeable discs that cost an arm and a leg, but Verbatim is pushing ahead with these units anyway. The company has just started to ship Blu-ray re-writable double-layer discs, which are shortened to BD-RE DL discs. According to the company, these can be re-written around 1,000 times, and they support 1080p media clips and multiple audio formats. Designed specifically for high definition video and audio data, these double-layer discs can support storage capacities of up to 50GB – twice that of...

When you think of NAS drives, you probably think of big, rectangular boxes that aren't much to look at. There's probably 2 or 4 bays in there for hard drives, a power port and an Ethernet jack. They're all pretty simple, and they're all pretty much the same. But this NAS drive is different. Majorly different. Verbatim's newest NAS drive isn't a traditional NAS drive at all. It doesn't even have room for internal storage, and it definitely doesn't ship with any. So what are you to do with a 0GB NAS drive? Add your own Flash memory! The MediaShare Mini was meant to be a consumer-level NAS drive that's mostly used for sharing multi-media around the house. The unit has 4 USB ports, where USB keys...

USB drives have progressively become smaller and smaller over the years, and while that's good in one sense, it's bad in another. We're talking about how easy it has become to lose a USB thumb drive, and when those drives have highly important information on them, that's a potential deal-killer. Verbatim has an idea for making sure you never lose another thumb drive. It's another thumb drive. The Store 'n' Go Clip-It USB Drive has received a Red Dot design award, mostly because it's designed to be clipped onto your shirt or belt. In other words, this USB drive goes where you go, so unless you lose your shirt or belt, you won't lose your thumb drive. It's available in a few different colors, and...

Thanks to high definition video, pictures, and other digital files, we need increased amounts of storage. Soon, the storage capacity of Blu-ray discs could double. In fact, companies such as Sharp, TDK, and Verbatim are already making plans to launch new discs that can store up to 100GB of data.

We know it's an easy joke, but really, could Verbatim not think of any other name for its new family of mice? We're no experts on product labeling, but "Easy Riser" probably wouldn't have been our top choice for a number of politically incorrect reasons. At any rate, the news here is that Verbatim has issued a new range of mousing devices, all of which are designed to travel well and work with Windows and Mac machines.These ultra-slim mice boast a new design that enables users to adjust the height of the mouse with the flick of a switch. Why add that, you ask? According to the company, having the ability to raise or lower your mouse on-the-fly can make things more ergonomic when using it in various...

What might be the tiniest flash drive yet comes in emerald green or royal purple. Verbatim announced two new USB drives in the new "Tuff 'n' Tiny" family: an inch long, half an inch wide and as thick as a penny. The drives have support for Windows, Mac and Linux. The 8GB drive - that's the purple one - can store nearly eight hours of MPEG-1 video or 2,000 hours of MP3 music or about 4,000 300dpi color photos. The 4 GB drive comes in green. The drives are solid state - i.e., no moving parts - and Verbatim says they're "significantly more portable and more rugged" than your standard drive because the unit is sealed and therefore resistant to dust, water and static discharges. The drive can be slipped...
