Tired of the power supply going sour in your Time Capsule? Join the
crowd. Clickfree is making its annual CES introduction today from Las
Vegas, and for those familiar with the aforementioned Apple product,
you'll understand exactly how the Clickfree Wireless works. Put
simply, it's an HDD-infused box with an 802.11n radio within, and it's
designed to automate the backup of an unlimited quantity of Macs or
PCs without any wires whatsoever. Sort of. You'll still need to plug
it directly into each machine you're hoping to duplicate as the
initial backup takes place, but after that, all settings will be found
and configured, and all future backups will happen without wires.
Sadly, only two models are available at launch -- a 500GB box for
$179, and a 1TB unit for $249. If you've more than one machine in your
house, you'll probably need to wait for larger capacity units to
surface later in the quarter, but hey, at least they're en route.
