Pretty awesome, right?
This is another Kickstarter project turned reality, as the goal of $9,800 has been smashed by a pledge total of $198,444+
Une Bobine
[tentblogger-youtube Cb_yfI2ETZE]
Via Kickstarter:
Une Bobine is a patent pending flexible and eclectic stand, sync, and charging cable for iPhone… and Android. We have designed the cable with a very specific metal gooseneck material that provides a fully flexible cable with enough strength to hold the weight of your phone. The cable can be flexed in different positions, coiled, wrapped around objects…. the only limit is your imagination.
I’m sure you’re curious about the name:
We went through dozens of product name ideas before we settled on Une Bobine. It is French for ‘A Coil’ and also has Bob’s name in it, which made Bob happy.
Models include:
- Une Bobine – For iPhone (24 inches / 60 cm)
- Une Bobine – Micro|USB (24 inches / 60 cm)
- Petite Bobine – For iPhone (12 inches / 30 cm)
- Petite Bobine – Micro|USB (12 inches / 30 cm)
The pricing is looking good, although not set, we can assume that if you give $25 on Kickstarter and receive one, that the final sales price will be around the $25 mark.
You can check out their Kickstarter page, but tell me what you think:
Is it a good idea to use your phone port to “hold” your phone?

Between this and Makey Makey, Kickstarter keeps giving me good reasons to pad my gadget budget.
