CES Booth #20950 South Hall 1. -- January 6, 2007 – Norcent, a marketer of high-quality, value oriented home entertainment products, will debut a new entry into the Pen Drive marketplace during the 2007 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES). The compact Norcent Pen Drive features plug-and-play ease of use with no external power or battery required.

"We see a large opportunity for our Norcent Pen Drive line with the rapid growth of this market segment. These products enable users to easily and securely exchange large amounts of data between computers or notebooks that have a USB port, remarked Dennis Robinson, Norcent CFO.  “They are the ideal choice to replace many other larger storage products. As with all of our products, this pen drive will deliver our consumers the best value possible."

Users will appreciate the “spin to open” feature of this new drive ensuring no lost caps. The Norcent drive offers true plug-and-play convenience and each is compliant with USB 2.0 standards with a fast, full-speed transfer rate of up to 480Mbps. All are backwards compatible with USB 1.1. No external power or battery is needed, as a USB port located on compatible desktop or laptop computers powers the drives. A power-saving mode also reduces power consumption.

The highly transportable, lightweight and compact USB Pen drives are available in capacities ranging from 1GB to 2GB and each has an LED indicator light. The drives are compatible with Windows XP, 2000, ME 98SE, and Mac OSX or higher.
