hi I'm Richard singer and this is odok
0:05
it's a really beautiful high design dock
0:08
for the iPhone that allows you to use
0:11
the iPhone with or without a case and it
0:14
has multiple viewing angles you can view
0:16
it anywhere from 45 degrees which it is
0:18
right now um which is perfect for keying
0:21
or browsing the internet or if you want
0:24
to use it for FaceTime maybe you'd
0:25
wanted at about
0:28
26° um if you wanted to use it for a
0:31
clock function by a
0:32
nightstand at 10° you could index it
0:35
that way too at the rear of OD do there
0:38
are two connectors USB charging or
0:41
syncing to your computer it also has a
0:43
shielded line level out for playing
0:45
directly to your stereo bypassing the um
0:48
uh the internal amp of of the iPhone so
0:50
you get really great sound oh really
0:52
okay and and you say one of the one of
0:54
the primary uses for the dock would be
0:56
as a an AirPlay Hub yeah absolutely it's
0:59
it's really weighty um prototypes weigh
1:01
about 1 and2 lb but when it gets
1:03
manufactured it's actually going to be
1:04
closer to 3 lb because it'll have Zin
1:06
content sure yeah it already got some
1:09
half yeah it's heavy and it also has uh
1:13
removable back rests so that you can
1:15
adjust for cases of varying thicknesses
1:18
or iPhones without a case if you're so
1:20
daring and they press in really easily
1:23
and so this works with with and without
1:25
cases yes it does okay yeah yeah that's
1:27
a that's a big problem with a lot of
1:28
docks isn't it that they don't to
1:30
accommodate a lot of cases right and the
1:32
other big problem of course is um you
1:34
know when you lift the phone up the dock
1:36
comes with it so this is really stable
1:38
it's it's great as I said for using the
1:40
touchcreen or for FaceTime and um it
1:43
also allows you to lift the phone out
1:45
without taking the dock with it right
1:47
okay and so it's on Kink right now how
1:49
long's it been on it's been on for about
1:50
10 days okay and uh you are plan to make
1:54
in four different colors or more well
1:57
right now the plan is to make it in
1:59
three different which is a high glass
2:01
white a matte black and this is a clear
2:03
coat over a satin finish natural bead
2:07
blasted aluminum this is sort of an
2:08
experimental finish this is uh electroly
2:11
nickel plating over satin and um we're
2:14
planning possibly offering that as a
2:16
high-end offering um the other thing
2:19
that's really cool about it I wish I
2:20
could I I could show this on Kickstarter
2:22
but it has a really great feel to it it
2:24
almost feels like an expensive piece of
2:26
camera equipment M when you uh are cing
2:30
it into different positions it's got a
2:31
spring-loaded ball bearing mechanism oh
2:33
