iTwin: The File Sharing USB Version Of A Friendship Charm

Did you ever have one of those friendship lockets, where you wore one half and your friend wore the other? iTwin is like that, but it’s a USB stick, and it remotely connects your computers over the internet.

Obviously, shoving the whole internet between two computers introduces the potential for lots of problems—even with the clever handshake mechanism, iTwin’s gotta cut through servers, routers and firewalls—but the idea is great, especially if they can pull it off for $US99 early next year, like they’re planning to.
