Toshiba SDHC memory card now includes embedded wireless LAN communications.

For those who unfamiliar, "FlashAir™" is an SDHC memory card that incorporates a wireless LAN chip set plus an antenna for wireless communications. The card supports wireless sharing and transfers of photos from digital cameras to smartphones and

tablets.

Henceforth the new 32GB card has a new feature, “Internet pass thru mode”, with the goal to make wireless connection to the Internet more convenient.

This means, with the new feature, users do not have to manually change the wireless network settings of smartphones when downloading photos from the card to smartphones, uploading photos to SNS from a smartphone, or sending email.

Connectikpeople has also observed that, the new feature can also be used in the current FlashAir™ W-02 line-up by updating the firmware of the card.
