November 2, 2006, Wichita,
Kansas -- QuickerTek has debuted the first Transceiver for wireless networking that only requires a USB port. The Quicky boosts wireless range and signal strength at least twice the standard range of the 12-, 15- and 17-inch Apple PowerBooks.
The Quicky is a small product that easily clips (temporarily) to the PowerBook case top and features a small antenna. The Quicky is a unique combination of the power of a Transceiver product and an antenna. It requires no computer skills to either set up or use and is completely transparent to the PowerBook user. Once Quicky is clipped to the case and the short USB cord is plugged into the PowerBook's USB port, it's ready to use.
Quicky has 500 milliwatts of RF (wireless) power - that's ten times the amount that the best PowerBook can muster. The Quicky, with it's built-in antenna, clipped to the PowerBook case is up and out of the restrictions of the PowerBook chassis and therefore affords better signal reception. So, users get both more power and an antenna that is free from the small (if not stunningly handsome) PowerBook case.
"Quicky is revolutionizing wireless networking for Mac users. You don't have to open the PowerBook case to attach any cables. You just plug Quicky in and it works. Any Mac user can make it work, and work it does, creating a more powerful wireless connection to networks beyond the range of the standard PowerBook. We believe that once you've seen it work, you won't want to use anything else to boost your wireless performance," stated Rick Estes, president, QuickerTek, Inc.
Quicky works with all 802.11/b/g WiFi equipment from common manufacturers such as Linksys, dLink, Belkin, including Apple AirPort and AirPort Extreme. It works with all AirPort-supported PowerBooks and requires no software drivers or extra steps each time you want to go online. When online users will not only see more available wireless networks, but also connect to them at full speeds.
Like most QuickerTek products, Quicky is backed with a one-year warranty on parts and labor. Additional product information is found at <http://www.quickertek.com/Quicky.php>.
