WOBURN, Mass., Sept. 18, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- LogMeIn, the world's leading provider of remote connectivity and support tools, today announced a distribution agreement with SanDisk, to include LogMeIn Ignition as part of its offer to SanDisk u3 flash drive users.
LogMeIn Ignition downloads in seconds and can be installed on most portable devices that can be plugged into a computer (e.g., USB thumb drive, digital camera, MP3 player, mobile phone, etc.) -- instantly turning that device into a secure way to access and support remote computers.
