Airstash stop ship order

John Painter 4.21.10

Airstash ($99) notified customers today that its new wifi based flash drive is not shipping due to a problem in some of it's first run products with weak wifi signal (sound familiar iPad users?) even when the Airstash is fully charged and close to the device meant to stream to. A small number of defective units did ship, before 4/20/10, anyone having received one of these defective units should request an RMA number from the following address http://www.airstash.com/contact.html for return.

Having ordered an Airstash myself, I'm glad the company is acting promptly.

I'm a behavioral health professional living and working in Maine specializing in psychiatric rehabilitation. For years I've utilized mobile technology to improve the delivery of community based mental health services, and embraced the iPhone when it came out in 2007.

I am also a doctoral candidate at Franklin Pierce University where I have been researching the role of the Liberal Arts in American higher education.

I write as a guest for iPhone Life periodically with a special interest in helping other professionals (healthcare, education and government in particular) incorporate iOS devices into their work, and several years ago introduced the first iPhone and eventually iPad classes at Lewiston Adult Education in Lewiston Maine http://laeipad.blogspot.com/ concentrating on helping other professionals interested in using and incorporating iPads into their work.

You can get then direct from the company   http://www.airstash.com/   they are shipping now.  Mine works fine, the battery holds a good charge and it does stream movies very well so I'm thinking right now this is the best use.  However I can see some other uses such as having a portable slide show or powerpoint, etc, etc to take on a talking tour in places where there is no wifi.  As long as everyone had some sort of device with a web browser they'd be able to browse all the media that I have streaming off the airstash.  

The one downside for me still, there isn't a firmware upgrade yet to upload from your device to the airstash, for the time being it's a one way street, and that's a serious limitation.

worthwhile trying
