LaCie rolled out a new wireless storage device aimed at iPad users that need to offload content without deleting it. The original LaCie Fuel had 1TB of storage inside. It has now doubled the capacity of that drive with a new 2TB version available.
The Fuel is able to wirelessly stream content to up to five devices without an internet connection. When a Wi-Fi network is available, the Fuel can be connected and used as a hotspot to provide those same devices access to the internet.
The Fuel is also AirPlay compatible and and has a battery good for ten hours of use per charge. The company bills it as the Fuel for the iPad, but it works with the Seagate media app so it should work with the iPhone, Android, and the Kindle as well. Pricing for the 2TB Fuel is $249.99(USD) and it will ship this month.
