64GB PNY Elite Performance SDXC for $23 {limit 10} [updated]

UPDATE 6:41pm ET: there is a newer U3 “up to 95MB/sec” model that goes for $23 with a limit of 10 as well at Amazon by Amazon itself. Thanks to Scott for pointing it out in the Comments!

More PoNY action, this time it is an SDXC card. The 64GB PNY Elite Performance SDXC UHS-I U1 with up to 90MB/s (I mentioned this because it’s part of the model name and card face, so you can tell it apart from other models; I am not doing Memory Card Performance Measurements and Tests), model P-SDX64U1H-GE, is on sale for $23 with a limit of ten units per customer at Amazon by Amazon itself. The usual free shipping terms apply (Prime or $49+ total/$25+ books).

256GB PNY Turbo Elite USB 3.0 Flash Drive for $55

Backups on the whole lifecycle of photography are more important than they are given credit for, because it’s not one of the sexier parts of the photography process. But it’s good to have backups and multiple options. Which brings us to USB Flash drives. The 256GB PNY Turbo Elite USB 3.0 Flash Drive, model P-FD256TBO-GE, is on sale for $55 with free shipping, with a limit of ten per customer at Amazon by Amazon itself. It currently “defeats” the other storage sizes in its own line (32GB, 64GB, 128GB).

Meta News: UPS offering “Follow My Delivery” for UPS Next Day Air and Worldwide Express

If you need items to arrive in a time sensitive matter or you have placed an expensive order and you don’t want to let it linger around in slow shipping hell, UPS My Choice members (free to sign up for; not the Premium tier) will be able to track their packages as they travel to your door. This is a new feature called “Follow My Delivery”. An infographic explaining the process is available from UPS in PDF format.

This feature is available only for Premium shipping services with a time commitment, such as Next Day Air or Worldwide Express.

Unlike the Amazon PrimeNow deliveries that can be tracked in the PrimeNow mobile app, tracking for this is done on the web. UPS will send you an email with a link to a “Follow My Delivery” url. So you can use it on any device that is capable of accessing the internet [this is based on what their email says, I haven’t used this service yet].
