The Iropod Desk Is A Mobile Computer IV Injection

You know those mobile IV stands you see people clutching to in hospitals? Well, the iropod or “Interactive Robotic Pod” is kind of like that, but it’s for another kind of disease — computer addiction.

Oddly enough, the iropod doesn’t involve a laptop — the computer is built-in to the frame with a power source that the manufacturer claims has as much juice as a car battery. It also appears that the frame can be adjusted to accommodate different seated or standing positions or for easier storage. Details like specs and pricing have not been announced, but word is that the iropot will debut sometime between now and the end of September. However, if it is a mobile workstation you are after, I strongly urge you to consider something a bit more practical. [iropod via Engadget]
