Perhaps to appreciate just what a “digital hub” is, you
need to think of it as the natural evolution of the desk. As cell
phones get smaller, laptop computers replace desktop models, and iPods
take the place of CD players, why do we need a full-size desk to dock
all this stuff when we finally slow down long enough to recharge their
batteries and ours? The answer, in many cases, is that we don’t.
So the digital hub is a perfect solution.
Considering those electronic devices I just listed, what do they all
have in common? Portability. So when you’re |
on the go, the hub
folds up out of the way. But on those occasions when you do need to
stand still long enough to pay a bill, answer an email, or just grab
the latest headlines from the internet, the front of the hub folds
down to offer a convenient, compact work area. And by mounting the
hub at bar height, you can use it comfortably while standing or sitting
on a stool.
Then, at the end of each day, the hub provides the perfect cubby to
store and recharge all your gadgets. A power strip hidden behind the
frosted doors provides plenty of plug-ins. And a removable corkboard
in the back of the hub hides all of the inevitable wires.
