 40GB capacity and biometric security from the world's first pocket-size USB
                       HDD launched at RSA, booth #1806

    IRVINE, Calif., Feb. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Memory Experts International
(MXI), a leading provider of secure, portable data storage devices, took the
wraps off its 'top secret' biometric USB product - Outbacker(TM) - capable of
delivering the storage power of a PC in a 3 by 5 inch personal data device.
    As the world's first fully ruggedized, pocket-sized hard disk drive (HDD),
Outbacker comes in two sizes, 20 gigabytes and 40 gigabytes. Both versions
come with full AES encryption capability, biometric (fingerprint) access
control, PIN pad security and USB 2.0 connectivity. The Outbacker is
compatible with Windows 2000 SP4 and XP SP1 and Windows 98SE.
    "Outbacker's huge storage capacity and ultra fast data writing means you
can quickly and easily package your entire desktop, all your Internet
favorites, your documents and your email files, on a single, secure and
completely mobile device," said Mike Kieran, director of sales and marketing
at MXI. "We have a backlog of interest from large enterprises and government
organizations, particularly the military, because of the potential
applications this device holds."
    The Outbacker's multi-layer security and 128 bit AES encryption delivers
full confidence to its users by ending fear of device theft. The Outbacker
permits the storage of up to 10 fingerprints, so the device can be utilized by
more than one person in ultimate secure fashion, with individual PINs being
enrolled.
    USB Flash Drive Alliance projects that over five million USB flash drives
were sold in the United States in 2003, representing approximately 20 percent
of the worldwide market.
