hField releases Wi-Fire™ for Macintosh
BETHLEHEM, PA - August 16, 2007: hField Technologies has just launched the Wi-Fire™, a compact high-performance USB Wi-Fi Adapter for Macintosh. With an integrated high-gain directional antenna and extremely strong receive sensitivity, the Wi-Fire™ gives Macintosh users the freedom to connect to Wi-Fi networks when they want, where they want. Users benefit from the increased mobility and greater range with faster speeds as compared to Airport or Airport Express.
Wi-Fire™ provides interoperability with any 802.11 b/g access point and multiplies the effectiveness of wireless networks, allowing users to connect to a Wi-Fi network from up to 1,000 feet, more than three times the range of Airport cards and other 802.11 adapters, at significantly higher speeds, and even in locations where no wireless signal could be detected previously.
Wi-Fire™, only 3 inches by 4 inches with a sleek 3/8-inch thickness, is small, easy-to-use, and folds up with its mounting device and USB cable for portability. Images of Wi-Fire™ are available for download at http://www.hfield.com/newsroom/media/.
Retail price for Wi-Fire™ is $79.00 and is available now at http://www.hfield.com/buynow and participating retailers.
“Wi-Fire™ is the perfect device–lightweight and easy to use–for the seriously mobile Mac user as well as Mac users who have problems connecting to their regular wireless network because of distance, obstacles or other interference,” said Tom DiClemente, hField’s CEO. “We’re dedicated to Mac users connecting better, faster and more economically.”
Wi-Fire™ s also available for Windows XP. Linux and Vista versions are being developed.
