When you are mobile or constantly traveling, you have to be careful as well on how you safeguard your data. While some would address it once they touchdown to their local home bases, why wait if you can get a device that allows you to back them up while on the go?

There is such a device and it is called the Clickfree Traveler from Storage Appliance Corp. The company has announced two new products, the Clickfree Traveler and Clickfree DVD Transformer. Available May 7, 2009, both devices are PC and Mac compatible, and eliminate the confusing and time-consuming hassle associated with backing up irreplaceable digital data.

The Clickfree DVD Transformer enables consumers to quickly and easily back up important data to optical discs, bypassing tricky CD and DVD burning software. Coupled with recordable CDs and/or DVDs, it’s an inexpensive yet foolproof way to back up important files.

Pricing:

• 16GB - $79.99 (U.S.)

Singapore Airlines has given people a better and convenient way to make sure that they don’t go through the hassles of booking their flights. Singapore Airlines has introduced a new service which will allow customers to check in for their flights with their mobile phones.

Passengers can check in using their handsets in the two days before their scheduled flight, and up to two hours before their departure time. The service is compatible with a wide variety of devices, including iPhones and BlackBerrys, and has been tipped to make travelling more convenient and hassle-free.

Singapore Airlines has confirmed that it is planning to expand its mobile services further down the line, possibly allowing people to book tickets with their handsets. The application can used by most web-enabled mobile phones and can be accessed anywhere in the world.

This comes shortly after SAS Scandinavian Airlines started a trial which involves passengers using their handsets to check in via text message and obtain a mobile boarding pass.
