The FINANCIAL -- At least two of every three consumers consider their kitchens cluttered, according to a recent survey conducted by Whirlpool (NYSE: WHR).
Whirlpool refrigerator's centralpark(TM) connection offers consumers a solution to this dilemma with a simple plug-and-play platform for interchangeable consumer electronics devices. iGo(R), a brand owned by Mobility Electronics, Inc. (Nasdaq: MOBE) is the newest device partner to join the centralpark(TM) connection lineup.
The centralpark(TM) connection allows consumers to power and use consumer electronics right on the refrigerator door. The newly planned compatible device, the iGo recharging station, provides an additional option to families with varying needs.
"The addition of iGo's recharging station to the centralpark(TM) connection will address the evolving needs of many consumers," said Mark Hamilton, director, centralpark(TM) connection. "As the adoption rate of consumer electronics has grown, kitchen countertops have become cluttered taking on the role of charging station to cell phones and MP3 players. This will provide a place to charge these devices and get them off the countertops."
