Anywhere You Go, smart made simple™ Designs Keep Your Devices Going With You
Kensington Computer Products Group, a worldwide leader in delivering smart made simple computing accessories for the mobile consumer, today introduced eight new products to help users boost the everyday performance of their mobile devices. Kensington has created affordable, easy to use, and pocket-able accessories to accompany netbooks, smartphones, and other portable devices. The ideal technology enhancers to bring on the go include: an all-in-one travel battery pack, two car chargers, a 4-piece car kit, a videochat light, a 4-port USB mobile hub, and two mice for netbooks.
The smart made simple design gives any household the power to travel light and stay connected to its personal technology. Mobile and portable devices continue to evolve from individually used technology tools into an everyday mobile lifestyle. Gartner research claims mobile devices sales will grow at a rate of 32% in 2009. Additionally, a 2009 NPD survey shows that smartphone users purchase 27% greater accessories (52% vs. 41%) than basic phone users. This ever-growing popularity of mobile devices means users need a new generation of multi-function accessories that can accompany them anywhere they go.
