Gummersbach, Germany – JOBO AG announces the addition of several new multi-card readers/writers to their line of media card readers. New today are the High Speed Multi-card Readers/Writers and Storage Boxes JOBO Cube CF (68-in-1) and JOBO Cube HUB (57-in-1) and the 70-in-1 Standard High Speed JOBO USB Multi-card Reader/Writer.

Both the JOBO Cube CF and JOBO Cube HUB are available in choice of black or white and feature a unique internal space capable of safely storing several media cards in one convenient location. Each Cube unit is compatible with all major Memory Stick (MS), Secure Digital (SD) and Smart Media cards. In addition, the new JOBO Cube CF features compatibility with all major Compact Flash (CF) cards and is capable of storing up to six CF cards or 10 SD cards. The new JOBO Cube HUB features 2 USB HUB ports instead of the CF card slot. The JOBO Cube HUB is capable of storing up to eight SD cards.

“With the introduction of these uniquely-styled and very affordable new combination media card readers, writers and storage boxes, the JOBO Cubes provide consumers with convenient media card storage right where they need it,” said Johannes Bockemuehl-Simon, JOBO’s CEO. “And beyond media card storage capabilities, if someone needs a card reader and a few extra USB HUB ports, the Cube HUB is right for them. Or if a user has several Compact Flash cards, among other media cards, the Cube CF is perfect. And our new standard model 70-in-1 USB Multi-card reader/writer provides the versatility many users are looking for. Anyone using any of these new JOBO media card readers can rest assured that their data can be quickly and easily transferred.”
