Yet another device that smartphones, like the iPhone, have made obsolete are alarm clocks. The only minor issue being that you need some way to prop them up to check the time, and Bracketron’s MetalDock does exactly that, with style.
Available at the end of June for around £20, the all metal dock can hold your iPhone in its portrait or landscape orientation while charging it at the same time. Its three foot cable cleverly keeps the dock propped up, while a set of rubber feet stop it from sliding all over. And its ultra-minimal design makes it perfect for travel, particularly if you end up in a dated hotel room lacking an iPhone compatible alarm clock.

If this remains stable in the landscape mode, I may very well consider a purchase.
My worry, from looking at the intense Photoshopping (just look at the Home button!) and understanding Physics is that this is a mock-up that won’t properly represent the final product.
I’d love to know the name of that Alarm Clock/Weather App as well (if it exists).
The app is Nightstand by Kensington Computer Products Group.
Thank you very much!
I am always worried that if I keep my phone’s screen on for too long, it will get burnt in or worse. Is my worry unfound?
I’ve never experienced this screen burning phenomenon, I never even consider it to be something to worry about. Is it something we should worry about?
I was hoping to get an answer…
well my answer is no, hoping someone else has insight.
