callpod chargepod1. Best Charger: Callpod Chargepod

The Chargepod isn’t revolutionary for what it does, but rather for how it does it. Chargepod is a 6-way charging device that allows you to charge multiple cell phones, PDAs, headsets, and most other mobile electronics with a single power cord. Just pick out the manufacturer-specific adapters for your devices and throw away the dozens of power cords and wall warts that are cluttering your office and home. Chargepod uses voltage regulator technology and interchangeable power adapters to safely charge all of your mobile devices regardless of manufacturer or model.

Price: The base unit costs $50 then you can buy whatever tip you wish for $9 each.

2. Best Dock: Altec Lansing T612

altec lansing t612If you are in a mood to share and have a party at your home then there is no better dock than this one. It features some technology that makes it “immune to mobile phone interference,” which means you can leave your iPhone’s cell radio on while it’s in the dock–and even take calls. That’s a step up from all other speaker docks to date that require you to switch the iPhone to airplane mode to avoid the annoying interference that the Apple phone (and all other GSM cell phones) tend to cause when they’re placed in close proximity to speakers.

Zacuto Zgrip iPhone Pro – The First Solution for Shooting Video with the iPhone 3Gs

zgripiphonemainpicThe iPhone is one of the very popular products of Apple Inc. It is basically a phone that offers facilities for integration with cellular networks. It can be used for audio conferencing and call merging. But besides its popular use as a phone, the iPhone can also be used in a variety of other areas. It is equipped with a camera that allows taking and viewing pictures and videos.

Now, to have the best camera experience, Zacuto made a completely adjustable and quick releasable handgrip system for shooting professional, stable video using the iPhone 3Gs – the Zgrip iPhone PRO. This is actually in response to the newly added video feature on the iPhone 3Gs.

The iPhone snaps into the iPhone cradle, the cradle snaps into the Zgrip and you are ready to shoot. The handgrip fully articulates, and all of the red levers allow you to adjust every angle to get those interesting, creative, and smooth shots.

Zacuto also have a couple of accessories to help you shoot with better sound, lighting, and for getting up real high above people standing right by you. You can add optional accessories such as LED light, stereo audio recorder and tripod mount.

Well, with a tag price of $295 [just enough for another iPhone 3Gs], I must say, I’m not convinced.

I’ll just settle for other iPhone accessories here.

Scale your iPhone’s video up to a 40-inch screen for eye-strain free, relaxed viewing.

Two additional cables for input sources are also included – a VGA input cable and an RCA input cable. The VGA cable lets you connect the MiLi Pro directly to your laptop or PC’s VGA port while the RCA cable allows you to connect most standard AV equipment sources like DVD players, VCR’s, etc. And with the input source button, you can switch between the various inputs.

For its power source, the MiLi Pro utilizes high-quality lithium-polymer battery technology. The battery pack is detachable and swappable. And because PhoneSuit wants to assure you that you won’t lose power in the middle of your favorite movie, they have included one extra battery.
