IBM stores bits on arrays of atoms, shrinks magnetic storage to the scientific limit
IBM’s Almaden Research Center is filled with some of the best and brightest minds in the world, and its researchers just released new findings that detail how just how far IBM has come in the realm of magnetic storage. Andreas Heinrich is leading the team at Big Blue that figured out how to create atomic storage based on the fact that atoms of ferromagnetic material align their spins in one direction — so the ability to control the spin direction is what’s needed to make such minature memory possible. Heinrich and his crew were able to accomplish the trick by supercooling 12 atoms to four degrees kelvin (-452 fahrenheit), and arranging them using an electron microscope in such a away that nonvolatile storage became possible

Toshiba FlashAir wireless LAN SD card hands-on (video)
The first card using the SD association’s Wireless LAN standard is Toshiba’s FlashAir and we’ve just spent some time with it here at CES. It’s much like existing Eye-Fis insofar that it also crams WiFi into a diminutive SD card, but instead of merely being able to join a network, the FlashAir creates its own outright. The 8GB class six card broadcasts an 802.11b/g/n hotspot, replete with its own web server onboard, which means its contents — like say pictures you’ve previously snapped in your camera — can be accessed in a browser by any connected device
