I have to say this is one accessory that I’ve been waiting to get my hands on for quite some time now. Since I was a kid I’ve dreamt of wall mounted computer screens around my house that looked very ‘star trek’… Well thanks to the new magnet based fridge mount from FridgePad, finally my dreams have come true.
The FridgePad is a very simple device, it’s a big magnet, attached to a slim iPad mount that enables your iPad to click in and out firmly and tightly. There are so many things that ‘could’ go wrong with a design like this. The magnet could be too weak, it could lift from the mount, or it could quite simply not hold the iPad well enough… All of these outcomes would result in your lovely glass fronted iPad shattering on your kitchen tiled floor.
Thankfully, despite my best efforts, the FridgePad held my iPad so tightly even I struggled to ‘easily’ remove it from my fridge which was fantastically reassuring.
So how does it work? Well, the FridgePad is made up of three main parts, the magnet, the mount and the clasp.
UPDATE: The FridgePad is now available for both iPad and iPad 2.
