The trick is to get as many gadgets into the surface as possible. It is not easy to organize the gadgets and at the same time maintain a flat surface for easy storage. I have tried a few times to get them in neatly. The gadgets on the Grid-It as shown in the picture.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>eGear battery<\/li>\n<li>Sanwa USB hub<\/li>\n<li>SINOELE 10,000 mAh battery<\/li>\n<li>High Tech Multi-Tool Adaptor<\/li>\n<li>USB to Micro-USB, 30-pin or Mini-USB cable<\/li>\n<li>Card Travel Adapter<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The problem that I faced using the Grid-It is that gadgets come in different shape, sizes and thickness. The rubberized bands may at times hinder you into making full use of them.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Summary<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Cocoon Grid-It (CPG7) can be bought at <a href=\"http:\/\/112katong.com.sg\/\" target=\"_blank\">I12<\/a> at S$19.95. There are different models but so far, I can only see a few of them. In my opinion, the Grid-It can be a good way to organize your gadgets or stationary. However, without a cover, you will need to worry if they would drop off without your notice. Not to worry, if you are paranoid, you can buy the Grid-It Wrap series where there will be a cover for it.<\/p>\n<h1><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cocooninnovations.com\/cat_info.php?cat_id=61\" target=\"_blank\">Click Here to Check Out Cocoon Grid-It<\/a><\/h1>\n<p>[ad#boxlist]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you have many gadgets and find it troublesome to keep them neatly, you may want to consider Cocoon Grid-It.
