iStation Turns Your iPad into a Retro Computer
December 2nd, 2011
M.I.C Gadget’s iStation will turn your modern-day iPad into a retro-style computer when it’s docked. In fact, one of these docks even looks kind of like the original wooden cases found on the Apple I computer. The other one is more reminiscent of the old Commodore PET.
The iStation has integrated speakers and a keyboard that will pair with your iPad via Bluetooth. There’s even a USB cable to charge up your tablet. This means that the iStation will be tethered to a power outlet. It’s the sort of dock that wouldn’t look out of place in a kitchen – or a vintage computer store.
It’s available in a faux retro woodgrain finish or in white for $85.90(USD) over at M.I.C Gadget’s online store.
