Active
Media Products Unveils Windows 7 Compatible Polar Bear USB Drive
Silicone
Rubber USB Drive is Lead- and PVC-Free and Benefits World Wildlife
Fund (WWF)
Fremont, California, July 21, 2009 – Active
Media Products (AMP), manufacturer of SSDs and unique USB drives including
the Obama drive, today began shipping a WWF Polar Bear USB flash drive
that is compatible with Windows® 7 and benefits WWF. Under its
licensing agreement with WWF AMP develops and sells a series of portable
USB flash drives in the likeness of endangered species, and contributes
five percent of the retail price of this product line to WWF.
The Polar
Bear drive is a fun way to carry all your important data. Offered
in capacities up to 16GB, the Polar Bear drive can store thousands
of MP3 songs, photos and presentations and still have space for your
favorite video clips. This precision crafted drive is an accurate
40:1 scale model of a real polar bear, and even has 'hair texture'.
The non-toxic silicone rubber casing is completely free of PVC, lead
and mercury - toxic materials commonly found in USB drives. The keychain
hole in the tail is perfect for attaching the Polar Bear drive to
a keyring, backpack or briefcase. The drive can stand on all fours
or, at only 2.6 inches long and 1.5 inches tall, is small enough to
carry in your pocket.

According
to Jerry Thomson, VP of Sales, "The WWF Polar Bear drive is an
awesome drive. We strived to make every detail physically consistent
with a real polar bear. It's more than just a square USB drive, it's
a storage device that computer users will love to own and enjoy using,
and every purchase benefits WWF." The Polar Bear drive joins
the Panda and Penguin drives as the third product in AMP's WWF series.
The WWF Polar Bear drive is available now through Amazon, Tiger Direct
and other online retailers.
