Pros:

Tiny, portable device gives USB connectivity to mobile devices lacking USB ports. Connects via its own independent wireless network, or can join other existing networks to back up and sync USB drive data to the cloud.

Cons:

Works only with Safari browser. Additional file browsing apps may be required on noniOS platforms. Included recharging cable does not come with AC adapter. At $100, a tad expensive.
