The MiniDock Has Arrived!

Sometimes, a product’s design is so intuitive and useful, it’s hard to ignore. Such is the case with the newest addition to the CableJive lineup, the MiniDock. Developed by our friends over at BlueLounge, the MiniDock made waves in the tech web-world over the last couple of weeks, with popular sites such as Engadget and Cult Of Mac heralding it’s simplicity and brilliance. And today, we’re proud to announce that the MiniDock has joined the CableJive lineup.

Sick of inconvenient outlet placement forcing your beloved iDevice onto the floor? Searching for a cleaner looking, more polished charging solution for your iPod or iPhone? Then look no further than the MiniDock, available now!

Preparing for CES 2012!

CES 2011 was groundbreaking for CableJive and we loved every minute of it. However, it became clear pretty quickly that visually speaking, our booth left something to be desired. Surrounded by incredible setups from companies like Griffin and Mophie, it became quite apparent that in 2012, we would have to step our game up.

And up our game shall step! We’re going to have double the space at next year’s show, and a much more impressive setup. Speaking of which, the main “structure” for our 2012 booth arrived just the other week. Without giving away too much, here’s a few snapshots of what transpired:

Gotta love getting deliveries away from the warehouse. Nothing like seeing an 18-wheeler try to find street parking.
(Little did I know the crates had wheels. Handtruck = not necessary. FAIL!)

 The structure came in these huge crates, each weighing over 100 lbs each! Good thing our elevator works.

A peak inside one of the crates. I know, I can sense your suspense. “WHAT COULD IT POSSIBLY LOOK LIKE?!?!”
(or, “Wow, a bunch of boxed metal. That’s cool man.”)

Well, you’ll have to wait and see what the end result looks like. Not giving away the big surprise yet.
Stay tuned here for the latest on our CES 2012 prep!

Cable Wranglin’

Being a company that sells cables, we understand that when you acquire (and frequently use) many cables, things can get a bit out of hand (tangled in some cases, chaos in others). Thankfully, we also have the cable management side of things covered, with CableDrops, CableClips, and the Cableyoyo. While there are certainly some beautiful product photos up there, I figured I’d throw up a “real world” pic of all the ones I use fairly regularly. They’re super handy if you find yourself dealing with cable-mess. Also, the Nest snuck in there for good measure, as it’s always right on my desk as well.
