iPhone zoomIt SD Card Dongle Available from zoomMediaPlus

In case you hate connecting your iPhone and/or iPod touch to a computer every time you want to add or remove photos and other files from them then today you’ll be interested to see a new solution that should help you better manage you mobile storage space. The zoomIt SD card reader and iPhone app will basically let you copy stuff from and to your iPhone.

All you need is a dongle that connects with the iPhone through the 30-pin port and a few SD cards. Thanks to the zoomIt application you will be able to transfer photos, music, movies, Microsoft Office docs and PDF files to and from the SD card. zoomIt can even read/write protected SD cards which is one more reason for checking the dongle out.

The application will also let you share photos through email, Facebook and Flickr but it comes with a rather steep price. zoomMediaPlus will sell the dongle and app for $59.95 in April but for a limited time you can take $10 off that price by pre-ordering for a zoomIt now.

Don’t press that buy button just yet since you should rather know all the facts before acting on your shopping impulse. As you already know, Apple has launched the iPad last month but it also announced a few handy accessories for it. Among those, there’s a dock adapter that will help you transfer files to and from the iPad to your cards. What’s even more interesting is that the device only costs $30 so in theory you’d be saving not $10, but $30 should you choose it instead of the zoomIt.

On the other hand, although the iPad has the same 30-pin port the iPhone and iPod touch have, that doesn’t necessarily mean that Apple’s dock connector will also be compatible with the iPhone and/or the iPod touch. Which means you might have to buy the zoomIt for the full price in case the Apple’s adapter won’t work with the iPhone.
