Here’s an interesting little concept charger/stand for the iPhone. Designer Mac Funamizu has put together what he calls the ‘iPetals’ iPhone charger. As you can clearly see, the charger unit connects directly to your iPhone, and fans out to expose multiple solar panels, used to charge up your device. But the kinda cool thing I like about this one is its double purpose. Note in the shot below, it doubles as a stand. Smart thinking. Of course, I can’t tell you if this product will ever make its way to the shelves, but I give a solid *tip of the cap* to Mac for his creativity and ingenuity.
