Griffin Releases iOS Compatible Toast Rack [CES 2013]
LAS VEGAS, CES 2013 -
No, it’s not really a toast rack, but it would totally work as one if you wanted to stack a few slices without letting steam making them go soft.
The PowerDock 5 is in fact Griffin’s new five-way charging station for, well, for anything. It works great with your iDevices, but also your Kindle, Android device, or anything that hooks up to USB.
You might laugh, but here at CES we’re constantly overloading the nearest power outlets whilst keeping our iDevices juiced. Well, all apart from Leander, who seems to forget that his iPad 3 needs to be plugged in for more than five minutes before he leaves the hotel room.
The only thing I don’t like is the non-portability – it’s not exactly carry-on friendly. Then again, I guess you could just use any old powered USB hub for most devices anyway.
Available very soon, for $100.
