One item that I’m really digging with the G2, is the fact that it can act like a portable wireless router.
This also brings the G2 in cheaper than what the first version was close it its launch. If you liked the original MLW, you can pick up the MLW G2 for $55.67 with free shipping on Amazon, plus tax – where applicable, and it includes a beefy 2 year warranty.
Another upgrade is this version can now handle up to eight simultaneous users instead of three, which is what the first version was limited to. This does mean that you essentially have limitless storage capabilities, which is great if you’re a heavy media user, but you do have to furnish your own storage media. Also like last year’s model, the MobileLite Wireless G2 (I’m going to use MLW G2 or G2 for short from here on out) does not include any built-in storage, so it is strictly a USB and/or SD card reader. Where last year’s model was strictly a wireless card reader with an internet pass thru capability, plus a portable battery for charging your mobile gadgets, this year’s model continues with those features and builds it out further, allowing for USB flash drives, Ethernet connectivity to act as a portable router, and even 3G USB cellular cards. Today, we will take a look at the MobileLite Wireless G2, which is quite like the first iteration, but with a few new perks and a fresh new look. Last year we took a look at the first generation Kingston MobileLite Wireless, which is an extremely handy solution to wirelessly share content amongst your devices. Not only that, but with the increasing mobile device adoption, you’re going to want to share that content as well. This very problem is why it’s extremely handy to have a solution to offload your media or files easier, so you can free up that precious space. Many people today have either a smartphone, tablet, or laptop in their possession, or some have several of these devices, but many of these devices come with only a limited amount of storage space built into them with no way to expand it.
