Transcend's P8 Card Reader Gets Pastel Color Makeover

Transcend Information, Inc. (Transcend), a worldwide leader in storage and multimedia products, has announced that its best-selling P8 all-in-one USB Card Reader is now available in India in eye-catching pearly pink and baby blue colors. The P8's fresh new color schemes break new ground in card reader design, allowing greater expression of individuality and unique personal style. With rounded edges and a streamlined design, the P8 is very compact (77.7mm x 46mm x 15.8mm) and easy to carry. Unlike other card readers, all of the P8's card slots are clearly labeled to avoid confusion and save time.

In addition, each P8 card reader comes bundled with photo recovery software that helps users easily restore lost or damaged files — e.g. documents, videos, spreadsheets, or music—with just a few mouse clicks.

Mr. Austin Huang, Regional Head - Sales, SAARC & APAC, Transcend, said, “The versatile Transcend P8 card reader is designed completely from an aesthetic perspective, including its shape, color, finish, details and even its functions. Featuring an all-new glossy pearlescent finish, these scrumptious new colors are certain to be the life of the party. We are confident that its attractive eye-catching colors, extra-convenient design, and timesaving photo recovery software, Transcend's versatile P8 card reader is the perfect companion for any memory card user.”

Transcend's P8 is fully equipped to handle high-speed Ultra DMA transfer modes, especially when using high-speed 300X CompactFlash cards, which assures ultimate compatibility and blazing-fast speed. The P8 directly accepts the most popular memory cards currently available, including CF, SD™, SDHC™, MMC, MMCplus™, RS-MMC, MMCmobile™, microSD™, and microSDHC™ cards. Moreover, it also supports miniSD™, miniSDHC™, and MMCmicro™ cards with an adapter.

Currently available in pearly pink (P8R), baby blue (P8A), black (P8K) and white (P8W) versions, the P8 is backed by a two-year warranty along with the comprehensive support of Transcend's industry-leading global service network.
