Lexar Media's JumpDrive(R) 2.0 Pro 80X Sets New Precedent for Professional-Level USB Flash Drive Performance Wednesday March 17, 8:01 am ET HANNOVER, Germany, March 17, CEBIT Hall 20, Stand D28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Lexar Media, Inc. (Nasdaq: LEXR - News), a leading manufacturer and marketer of high-performance digital media and accessories, today introduced JumpDrive(R) 2.0 Pro 80X, the most recent addition to the company's market-leading line of USB flash drives. Featuring a minimum sustained read and write speed capability equal to that of twelve megabytes per second, JumpDrive 2.0 Pro 80X is designed for rofessionals who need to move stored information from one location to another, instantly. Shipping in April in capacities of 256MB, 512MB and 1GB, JumpDrive 2.0 Pro 80X further satisfies the speed and capacity demands of professional users. "IT managers are among many professionals who will find more time in their day, thanks to the rapid transfer of information from their JumpDrive to the destination," said Dave Klenske, Director of Product Marketing, Lexar Media. "A full range of capacities also makes life easier, as professionals who prefer to carry one JumpDrive can store up to 1GB of information on the high-capacity model, while those who choose to designate one JumpDrive for each individual task can still take advantage of the improved transfer rate." JumpDrives are popular portable USB flash drives that allow users to conveniently store, carry and transfer files that are often too large to fit on other media such as CDs, floppy disks and Zip drives -- as is the case with many presentation, image, and music files. JumpDrive 2.0 Pro 80X will be available in April with an estimated retail price of $89.99 (256MB), $189.99 (512MB) and $349.99 (1GB). Like all models within Lexar Media's professional series of JumpDrive products, JumpDrive 2.0 Pro 80X is a USB 2.0 device and backward compatible with USB 1.1 ports. The drive itself is completely compatible with -- and does not require drivers for -- the following operating systems: Windows 2000/Me/XP, Mac OS 8.6+, and Mac OS X. About Lexar Media, Inc.

Available immediately worldwide in capacities of 32MB, 64MB and 128MB, Lexar Media's miniSD cards first began shipping in Japan in December 2003. ADVERTISEMENT miniSD is an extension of the SecureDigital (SD) memory format designed to offer flash-based storage for devices with limited internal space for removable memory. miniSD cards take up approximately 60 percent less area in a host device than the standard SecureDigital card. Lexar Media's miniSD cards include an adaptor for easy transfer of data when using devices equipped with an SD card slot. "Delivering a miniSD card to the market further demonstrates our commitment to be on the forefront of our industry," said Bobby Billman, Lexar Media's vice president of marketing. "The market for converged devices is rapidly expanding. As it does, so does the market's need for reliable, ultra-small storage solutions like miniSD." miniSD is specifically designed for portable, storage-intensive devices such as camera-phones, digital still and video cameras, MP3 players and PDAs. For example, Lexar's miniSD is compatible with the Panasonic X700 smartphone, a recently introduced multi-function device combining mobile phone, digital camera and personal assistant features. Lexar's miniSD cards are currently available with an estimated retail price of $29.99 (32MB), $49.99 (64MB) and $79.99 (128MB). About Lexar Media, Inc.

Lexar Media Introduces JumpDrive(R) Photo Wednesday March 17, 8:01 am ET Addresses the Professional Photographer's Need for High-Speed Data Transfer and Large Storage Capacity in a Compact, Durable Design; Value-Added Package Includes Image Rescue 2.0, Lexar Media's Award-Winning Image Recovery Software HANNOVER, Germany, March 17, CEBIT Hall 20, Stand D28, /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Lexar Media, Inc. (Nasdaq: LEXR - News), a leading marketer and manufacturer of high-performance digital media and accessories, today introduced JumpDrive(R) Photo, a 40X speed-rated, large capacity USB 2.0 flash drive designed to satisfy the needs of photographers who require professional-level performance, in a rugged industrial design. JumpDrive Photo is an ideal storage solution for professionals who share their digital images, presentations and other important information in the office and on the road, as the unit allows for an immediate transfer of data to PCs and Macs without requiring drivers or any other software support. In addition, all capacities of JumpDrive Photo ship with Image Rescue 2.0, Lexar Media's award-winning software that allows for the immediate recovery of seemingly "lost" or deleted images from memory cards and JumpDrive Photo. Like JumpDrive Photo, Image Rescue 2.0 is a 'must-have' tool for professional photographers worldwide. ADVERTISEMENT "JumpDrives have become an indispensable part of my day-to-day workflow, when I'm in the office and out on a shoot," said professional photographer Didrik Johnck. "I now carry my presentations and digital portfolios on JumpDrives, rather than burning CDs and taking them with me. And when I'm in the field, working with more than one laptop, I take full advantage of how quickly and easily I can transfer files back and forth," he added. "We are enhancing an already-strong portable storage solution by including Image Rescue 2.0, our well-respected image recovery software that not only recovers deleted images but also permanently deletes data from the card," said Dave Klenske, Director of Product Marketing. "JumpDrive Photo delivers professional-level storage capacity and performance, while Image Rescue 2.0 provides a peace of mind knowing that the software will help recover any images that appear to be 'lost' on a photographer's media card." JumpDrives are portable USB flash drives that allow users to conveniently store, carry and transfer files that are often too large to fit on other media such as CDs, floppy disks and Zip drives -- as is the case with many presentation, image, and music files. Designed in a durable plastic housing and rubberized cap to protect against rough use and the elements, JumpDrive Photo will be available in April with an estimated retail price of $89.99 (256MB) and $179.99 (512MB). Later this spring Lexar Media will introduce 1GB and 2GB versions of JumpDrive Photo. JumpDrive Photo is a USB 2.0 device and backward compatible with USB 1.1 ports. The drive itself is completely compatible with -- and does not require drivers for -- the following operating systems: Windows 2000/Me/XP, Mac OS 8.6+, and Mac OS X. Image Rescue 2.0 requires the following operating systems: Windows 2000/XP, and Mac OS X. About Lexar Media, Inc.

Lexar Media Announces World's Highest Capacity Memory Card with 8GB CompactFlash(TM) Thursday February 12, 8:06 am ET Lexar Doubles the Highest Capacity of CompactFlash, Allowing Professional Photographers to Shoot and Store Over 1,000 High-Resolution RAW Image Files on One Memory Card LAS VEGAS, PMA Booth H100, Feb. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Lexar Media, Inc. (Nasdaq: LEXR - News), a leading manufacturer and marketer of high-performance digital media and accessories, today announced its 8GB Professional Series CompactFlash(TM) card, the highest capacity memory card available in the world today. In addition to delivering extraordinary capacity in a matchbook-sized memory card, Lexar's new 8GB CompactFlash card delivers a 40X speed-rating, signifying a minimum sustained write speed capability of 6MB/s. By maintaining a close alignment with manufacturers who offer high-end digital cameras that create high-resolution files - which can be over 8MB each, Lexar's new 8GB memory card meets the needs of professional photographers who require capacity, speed and reliability - in an easy-to-handle removable media format. ADVERTISEMENT "Sports photographers, photojournalists and adventure photographers often lack the time and ability to change memory cards, as doing so might mean missing the action or actually putting themselves in physical danger," said John Omvik, Director of Professional Products Marketing, Lexar Media. "8 gigabytes of space allows these photographers to shoot continuously, even in remote, extreme or hectic situations, where it is difficult to change memory cards." "Just as new digital SLR cameras come to market with both larger image sensors and capability of faster throughput to storage devices, Lexar's new 40X 8 gigabyte card is perfectly timed for today's shooting demands," said Denis Reggie, renowned wedding photojournalism pioneer. "With this new card, I can quickly and reliably store one thousand or more full-resolution RAW images -- and that's welcome news for me and many other pro photographers who don't want to miss key moments while changing cards." In addition to delivering the world's highest memory card capacity, Lexar's new 8GB CompactFlash cards deliver high-speed performance, and incorporate Lexar's new Write Acceleration (WA) technology to provide increased in-camera speed performance in high-resolution CF cameras on the market. The new Write Acceleration includes optimized firmware to reduce overhead associated with transferring data, and provides a larger controller buffer to accommodate transferring up to 32 sectors of data in one command, in cameras supporting this feature. Lexar Media's 8GB CF cards will also include a free copy of the company's award-winning Image Rescue 2.0(TM) image recovery software. Like Lexar's 4GB CompactFlash card, the 8GB card is CompactFlash Type II and requires the host camera to support the FAT 32 file system. The new 8GB CompactFlash cards will be available at many photo specialty stores in May of this year. The cards include a lifetime warranty, unlimited access to Lexar Media's dedicated technical support team for professional photographers, and a free trial version of Photo Mechanic(TM) image management software. Pricing for the 8GB card will be released at time of shipment. About Lexar Media, Inc.
