Powerdock 5

GRIFFIN POWERDOCK 5

I plan to buy this gadget this year from amozon.com. It because in my family we have a lot of gadgets, it can be hard to find a place to charge everything. There are docks on the market that can charge multiple gadgets, but many of them seem to be just for Apple products. I already survey this gadget and found the PowerDock 5 from Griffin offers a solution to store our gadgets neatly as they all charge from a single power source. Although the box indicates the charger if for iPad/iPhone/iPod, it should actually work with most any USB-chargeable gadget.

Each of the PowerDock 5's charging bays are separated by clear plastic dividers and feature small cable runs in between, which makes for convenient cable management if needed. The bottom is also covered in rubber, so it won't slip off of smooth surfaces. That said, the way it's laid out also makes it kind of awkward looking unless it's positioned correctly. The power cable (which features a rather large brick) comes out of one side... or it could be the back, depending on how you use it.

PowerDock 5 is optimized for iOS devices (iPad, iPad mini, iPhone, iPod touch, iPod nano). It promises to keep our work area free from a tangled mess of cables. Each of the five charging stations can hold an item the size of a tablet. The design is also stylishly minimalistic and I really like how it looks . Overall, I think this gadgets is very useful and hopefully I will get this gadget before end of this year. Need to work hard to get the allocation budget for this gadget :)
