Sony TransferJet card for PCs shows up on the FCC

Sony’s TransferJet technology sounds like a good enough idea.  The short range wireless technology allows you to transfer data between two TransferJet devices at up to 560 Mbps (with actual transfer rates around 375 Mbps) by just touching the two devices together.  That allows you to ditch your bulky flash toasters and various memory cards, and just go TransferJet all the way.

So far, TransferJet Memory Sticks have popped up on Sony’s website for preorder, but today we got our first look at a TransferJet PC card thanks to the FCC.

The PCI Express Mini TransferJet card is known as the CSN5000, and was tested in a Sony PCG-5N1N notebook.  We’re not exactly sure what product line the PCG-5N1N belongs to, but the device has a VGP-AC19V25 AC adapter, which works with Sony’s CR and SZ600 notebooks.

Either way, today’s FCC filing jives with news that Sony will announce its TransferJet lineup this week.  According to PC World, Sony’s TransferJet products will include the aforementioned TransferJet Memory Stick, a USB adapter, a laptop and TV.

TransferJet technology won’t come cheap though – an 8GB Memory Stick with TransferJet will cost $100, $30 more than a normal Memory Stick, while the TransferJet USB adapter will cost $150.
