Apple & Dual Charger Project

[Just17]

Apple's intransigence caused a kickstarter project to cancel, but with Apple's latest statements it MIGHT be possible for the project to go ahead ......

It is a design for a charger for both Apple and Android devices

The Kickstarter campaign that was "shut down" by Apple for creating a charging station that had both Lightning and 30-pin iPod connectors wasn't following the specifications required to be part of Apple's "Made for iPod" (MFi) program, according to Apple. Still, Apple has reviewed the specifications and has apparently reversed course on those restrictions, telling Ars on Friday that it has decided to allow 30-pin and Lightning connectors side-by-side for charging purposes.
