Spark Technology today unveiled a USB flash drive style device called the CellStik. This device, whose purpose it is to make easier the process of transferring and backing up cell phone contacts, is available now for use with LG, Motorola and Samsung phones and is priced at $39.99.
The CellStik, Spark said, connects through a USB 1.1 connection to a host computer. Through the CellStik’s software, users can enter and edit cell phonebook contact data they wish transferred to their phone. Users then connect their phone to the CellStik to transfer the entries through a one step, push-button process.
“How many of us have either lost our phone or upgraded our cell phone to a new model only to think of all the time that will be wasted re-entering phone numbers,” said Tom Beck, president of Spark Technology. “We knew there had to be a simple way to protect the millions of cell phone users from losing their valuable contacts within their phones. CellStik is a quick, easy way for cell phone users to ensure their contacts stay right where they belong — on their cell phone.”
