SlatePro's Personal TechDesk is designed for Apple and iOS devices

The Personal TechDesk is a Kickstarter project and a serious Apple loyalist's accessory. Not only is it made of the familiar blonde wood we see at various Apple Retail Stores, it is designed with built-in slots for iPhones and iPads plus has some vented areas to keep MacBooks nice and cool. The SlatePro will sell for US for $698 later this year which isn't bad for a specialized desk that's handmade. If that's too expensive, consider the $ 98 slate, which is a desk for notebook users that uses the same materials.
