The Imation Pro WX may be the first Wireless USB device that isn't a USB hub, but its high price keeps us from recommending it.

Kind of hoping it would have been a standard Wireless network device so I could wireless plug it into my LAN.

Disappointed.

There are cheaper ways to do just that, though.

You didn't test it wirelessly because you couldn't?
What kind of Mickey Mouse operation are you running there?
The whole point of this very expensive drive is that it is wireless! The part you didn't test. Morons!

Did you actually read the review where it states that wireless is terribly slow compared to the wired counterpart? Plus, the controller is doing something to slow down the transfer rate. Wireless would make it even slower.

If you also read MORE of the review, you'd see where I spelled out how to get a wireless USB drive on the cheap. Thanks for your comments, now go learn some manners!

One more thing, we tell companies that we test on Linux. If your product doesn't work, that's tough.
