Victorinox, the manufacturer of the world-famous Swiss Army Knives, released during this CES a more secure USB drive. Called Presentation Pro, it features a fingerprint reader, so nobody can have access to the files inside the drive but you. Data is also encrypted (128-bit AES or up to 256-bit DES), so even if someone tries to bypass the fingerprint reader by trying to physically modifying the drive he won’t be able to have access to your data. It also features a Bluetooth remote control, allowing you to control your presentation using your pocket knife wirelessly – as long as your PC or laptop has a Bluetooth antenna, of course (Victorinox also sells a companion Bluetooth receiver). Another interesting feature is its integrated laser pointer, making it a complete presentation tool. The product comes with synchronization software to allow you to always have the latest version of your presentations. And finally Presentation Pro is a pocket knife, featuring a small pair of scissors, a small knife and a small sander. Presentation Pro Flight is a special version to allow you to carry it inside airplanes, removing the three tools we’ve just mentioned.

Presentation Pro is available in 8 GB, 16 GB and 32 GB versions and the only problem is the price tag: USD 169.95, USD 224.95 and USD 334.95, respectively (USD 164.95, USD 219.95 and USD 329.95 for the Flight version, respectively).
