CES 2009 truly brings new meaning to the trite expression: “they’ve thought of everything.” In this show’s case, it seems that these companies truly have. Who would have ever thought to put a USB drive, laser pointer, and Bluetooth remote control into a Swiss Army knife? Well, the makers of the original Swiss Army Knife, Victorinox Swiss Army did just that and called it Swiss Army Presentation Pro.
In this video, Martin Kuster and Charles Elsener of Victorinox Swiss Army explain how this knife is now equipped with business necessities but still serves the same purpose that your grandfather used it for. The typical functions of a Swiss Army knife include a blade, scissors, nail file with screwdriver, and keyring. The more modern functions include a laser pointer and a Bluetooth remote control for Windows-only PC or laptop presentations.
On top of all that, it also has a removable 32 GB USB drive. This drive has secure data encryption technology that allows users to protect important files and presentations since the only method of access is through the owner’s fingerprint. Other features include: ECC and BCE error correction and AES and DES encryption capable.
This Victorinox Swiss Army Presentation Pro is currently in mass production and is scheduled to be available in the U.S. by the middle of May. The price starts at $169.95 for 8 GB of storage and goes up to $329.95 for 32 GB of storage.
