Earth Trek phone stand

Here’s an interesting accessory, every gadget freak should consider getting. The Earth Trek 4-in-1 mobile stand is a multi purpose device that can be used for charging a mobile phone or connecting the device in question (which actually doesn’t have to be a mobile phone) with a PC. In addition, it acts as a three-way USB hub and as card reader, supporting all popular flash card formats.

And while this is a great addition to every gadget lovin’ desk, there’s one thing we don’t quite understand – how mobile phones stick on this baby? Good ol’ love may not work this time and using a magnet may interfere with your memories, though I’m not sure that’s the case with flash-based cards as well. To make things even harder-to-believe, image above displays a perfectly still mobile phone in a moment of charging. Go figure.

Earth Trek 4-in-1 mobile stand is available in either white or black at a still undisclosed price. Earth Trek’s website has more information about it, but it requires an email address for accessing the product info page…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
