The Kama Connect is another one of those USB 2.0 devices that allows you to connect directly to a hard drive or CD/DVD drive without the need for an external case. What sets the Kama Connect apart from the rest is that it has multiple connections for 2.5 inch or 3.5 inch IDE drives and 2.5 inch, 3.5 inch and 5.25 inch SATA drives.

And since the Kama Connect is available from Scythe for only $29.90 it seems like a must-have tool to keep on hand for any emergencies.

Looks really neat - and cheap! Doesn't seem to be available yet (the online ordering doesn't work and none of the suppliers I looked at stock them).

i was really afraid this was going to be vaporware...
not that it has to be - the technology is not very different from an external case, and they don't cost much more, but still i'll believe it when it can be ordered..
