Connectland's USB multi-cellphone charger is quite small, fragile
Compared to other cellphone charging pads out there, Connectland's USB Multi-Cellular Phone Charger is mighty minuscule. The box gets power via a USB plug and then pipes it to eight different connectors that fit into mobiles from Samsung, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, Nokia, etc. We dig that Brando throws in a "foam rubber" to keep this in while traveling, but honestly, would it really take more than two unanticipated jaunts to break every last prong from this thing? She's $18 if you're shaking your head from left to right.[Via Gadgets-Weblog]
Sneek peek at Gomadic's new charging station
Gomadic, well known for tips, chargers and adapters of all kinds, popped a quick peek at its new Multi Charging Station on the Gomadic blog recently. To say we're pretty stoked is definitely an understatement -- with space for four devices and only one cable snaking back to the wall, we're expecting this thing to become a mainstay at Engadget Mobile central. Unlike some charging stations, Gomadic claims this isn't simply a power bar in disguise as all of the power needs are handled by one circuit which is in the transformer plugged in the wall. In other words, no heat, no worry, just happily charging devices resting on a no-slip cushion. No clues as to when this will hit retail, how many of Gomadic's interchangeable tips will be included, or price, but we are all signed up to get more info and as soon as we have it, you will.
