Logitech iPad Speaker Stand [Review]

In swag-factor alone, Logitech’s iPad Speaker Stand succeeds. The iPad (or iPhone if you’re daring or stupid enough) cradles into the dock, charges and blasts music out of the ultra-loud speakers. For US$60 or so, it is a worthy purchase.

Best part, the click when the iPad is rotated in place. Here, I’ve filmed it for posterity.

Why’s my arm so hairy?

The speaker is stable, pumps out incredibly loud music without distortion and turns the iPad into a hot, sexy display of tech goodness. Sound is full stereo, the arm of the base is pitch adjustable and looks damn snazzy. Downsides? It would be nice if the speaker stand operated as a stand-alone device, as it needs constant AC power. A docked stand would have been ideal. Other than that, there are no downsides.
