It can be used as a syncing and charging device for an iPod or iPhone via a connection to a computer while also recharging the PowerLink itself.

The Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price for the PowerLink is $49.99. The device is shipping now.

-- Macally PowerPal - A must-have product for international travelers, the PowerPal is a combination USB, AC charger and universal power adaptor that can charging virtually any USB device such as an iPhone, iPod, camera and PDA. It provides interchangeable plugs for North and South America, Taiwan, Japan, Europe, China, Middle East, Russia, United Kingdom, Singapore, Hang Kong, Africa, Australia and New Zealand. It also offers a fuse compartment (including and extra fuse) and a Universal pass through outlet--so users still have access to a plug, even when the adaptor plugged into an outlet.

-- JBoxMini - Compact and portable, the JBoxMini is an external high capacity Li-ion battery for iPod and iPhones, ideal for long flights, outdoor activities, or anywhere these devices might be used long enough to run out of power. The compact device not only increases the usage time of iPhone and iPod by up to four hours, it can also power other USB-based portable devices while on the go. Features include a built-in battery tester button, a battery level LED indicator and a power on/off switch to save the battery power when not in use. The MSRP for the PowerPal is $29.99.
