December 28th 2010 | Rapid Cleaning IP 1069

January 9th 2006 | Stand-alone presenter
eFlash gives you the possibility of presenting the most common office applications without having to use a laptop. eFlash is a small handy ergonomic device which is easy to carry around. It connects easily and intuitively to a projector or TV with simple cable connectors.
The secret behind eFlash is that it uses a sophisticated chip, giving ability to store thousands of files. We have aimed for a characteristic and organical design. It's built around a simple oval, giving a rather technical product an elegant expression. The shape is cut in both ends to embrace sockets etc. The detailing matches the overall design language.
