IGO-POST Launches New Custom-Made USB Service

IGO-POST announces the launch of its new custom made USB service which allows the customer to design their own USB stick.

2010-11-07

STAFFORDSHIRE, ENGLAND, November 07, 2010 (Press-News.org) IGO-POST, a European market leader in the production and supply of promotional merchandise to corporate clients, has announced the launch of a new custom made USB service. The new offering demonstrates IGO-POST's continued commitment towards providing customers with increased imprint possibilities and truly customised promotional solutions.

The custom made service is being rolled out across 12 countries and serves as an extension to the company's existing multimedia collection which includes a wide range of promotional USB memory sticks, MP3/MP4 players and computer accessories.

In a departure from the standard USB solutions offered more widely in the promotional products industry, 'Custom Made' broadens the customisation process beyond the imprint of a company logo, into the realm of concept and design. The new process allows 2 or 3 dimensional USB flash drives to be produced in the form of a company's logo, mascot or desired shape.

IGO-POST has confirmed that the custom-made USB memory sticks will require a minimum order quantity of 250 pieces and will be offered in four base materials; hard PVC, soft PVC, ABS and Silicone, to accommodate variations in both budget and design.

The service will require customers to provide a simple design brief and image or illustration outlining their concept and technical requirements, which will later be rendered as a print proof or production sample for approval, upon request.

Sam Davies, IGO-POST's UK general manager, said: "The new service allows customers to really open up their imagination. Whilst our standard USB products are perfect for many clients, we're also aware of an increasing demand for unique one-off solutions.

"Having produced well received custom USBs for a number of clients, we have quickly moved to make this service widely available to all of our customers."

IGO-POST will continue to offer its existing range of plug and play USB memory sticks which includes a range of memory capacities, the option of pre-loaded data, and a selection of items from stock for fast delivery.

The custom made service is publicised online via the company's promotional products website and also features in IGO-POST's latest Winter Collection 2010 brochure. The Winter Collection includes a special selection of the company's most popular winter products alongside brand new seasonal items and gifts.

Moved by religion: Mexican cavefish develop resistance to toxin

2010-11-06

COLLEGE STATION, Nov. 4, 2010 — A centuries-old religious ceremony of an indigenous people in southern Mexico has led to small evolutionary changes in a local species of fish, according to researchers from Texas A&M University. Since before the arrival of Christopher Columbus to the New World, the Zoque people of southern Mexico would venture each year during the Easter season deep into the sulfuric cave Cueva del Azufre to implore their deities for a bountiful rain season. As part of the annual ritual, they release into the cave's waters a distinctive, leaf-bound paste ...

Cedars-Sinai 'nano-drug' hits brain-tumor target found in 2001

2010-11-06

LOS ANGELES (Nov. 4, 2010) – Nine years ago, scientists at Cedars-Sinai's Maxine Dunitz Neurosurgical Institute detected a subtle shift occurring in the molecular makeup of the most aggressive type of brain tumors, glioblastoma multiforme. With further study, they found that a specific protein called laminin-411 plays a major role in a tumor's ability to build new blood vessels to support its growth and spread. But technology did not exist then to block this protein. Now, employing new drug-engineering technology that is part of an advanced science called nanomedicine, ...

Study shows extreme form of pregnancy-related morning sickness could be genetic

2010-11-06

Approximately 60,000 pregnant women are hospitalized each year due to hyperemesis gravidarum (HG), an extreme form of nausea and vomiting that endangers their lives and often forces them to reluctantly terminate their pregnancies. And for women with sisters, mothers and grandmothers on either side of the family who have experienced extreme morning sickness during pregnancy, the risk of HG may be heightened, according to a new study led by researchers from UCLA and the University of Southern California. Researchers traced both the maternal and paternal family histories ...

UCI, other scientists find new galaxies through cosmic alignment

2010-11-06

Irvine, Calif., Nov. 4, 2010 – UC Irvine astronomers, along with scientists across the globe, are discovering hundreds of new galaxies through brighter galaxies in front of them that deflect their faint light back to the massive Herschel telescope. This effect, identified by Albert Einstein a century ago, is known as cosmic gravitational lensing. "I was surprised to learn that Herschel is so good at finding these cosmic lenses," said UCI professor of physics & astronomy Asantha Cooray, lead U.S. author of a paper about the discovery in the Nov. 5 issue of the journal ...

National study shows CT screening of former, current smokers reduces lung cancer deaths

2010-11-06

WASHINGTON, DC – A large national study finds that screening current or former heavy smokers with a CT scan can reduce deaths from lung cancers by 20 percent. One potential reason for the reduction is that the scan can pick up tumors at an early stage. The study was conducted by the National Cancer Institute at 33 centers around the country including Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center, a part of Georgetown University Medical Center. The National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) involved more than 53,000 current and former heavy smokers ages 55 to 74. More than ...

Real-time physician electronic alerts reduce unnecessary blood testing in elderly patients

2010-11-06

November 5, 2010 (OAKLAND, Calif.) – An electronic message sent to physicians the moment they ordered a blood test for elderly patients reduced unnecessary use of the test that is often false-positive for the elderly, according to a paper published in the November edition of American Journal of Managed Care. The D-dimer test, combined with a clinical risking algorithm, can help in the diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis (blood clots in veins, otherwise known as DVTs) and pulmonary embolism (blood clots in the lungs). The risk of developing a blood clot in the venous circulation ...
