Kingston's new MobileLite Wireless ($TBD) is the followup to its earlier Wi-Fi extra storage accessory Wi-Drive. Instead of built-in storage, this one uses user-provided external media -- a USB drive, microSD, or standard SD, to give your iOS device extra space for media files. It can communicate with up to three iPads, iPhones, or iPods at a time over Wi-Fi, sharing photos, videos, documents, and more. As it's still in the beta stages, we'll have more information, including a full review, once the software and hardware have been finalized. The beta unit shown here says "Wi-Drive+," but that will apparently not be part of the final product's name.

Editors' Note: iLounge only reviews products in "final" form, but many companies now change their offerings - sometimes several times - after our reviews have been published. This iLounge article provides more information on this practice, known as revving.
