If your household is like mine, you’ve got a power outlet in the kitchen where family members jockey for cellphone charging position. If you’re lucky, you can all use the same charger - but even then, people take the extra one to work, then start sabotaging each other by unplugging each others charge cycle to juice their own. It can get ugly.

Recently, we became a 2-iPhone household - and if you are in this lucky minority, or even just have multiple iPods, then the Griffin Powerdock 2 is for you.

For less than the price of an official Apple Universal dock, you get two charging slots in the same charger, using just one wall socket. It sidles up nice and neat against the wall, so your phones aren’t just laying around with a cord in them. Its tidy. Its also very low-key and attractive. While it doesn’t have a 3G adapter, we use it just fine by not using any adapter at all (we both use silicone cases, so no adapter works anyway).

Make sure you get this one from Amazon and not the Apple Store ( I recommend this for most Apple products in general), as Apple charges list price while Amazon discounts it significantly.

Oh - and just in case you have more than 2 iPods/iPhones - Griffin has a 4 position model as well!
