Apple’s iPhone 5 User Guide refers to ‘iPhone Dock’ while new patent application reveals wireless inductive charging dock
“Many times in the past Steve Jobs had said that Apple had no interest in phones or tablets and thought that network computers were silly with this concept of data residing somewhere in a cloud in the sky,” Jack Purcher reports.
“Everything that he said that Apple had no interest in eventually came to be. After Apple’s special iPhone 5 event earlier this month, Phil Schiller tried to do the same thing in respect to wireless inductive charging,” Purcher reports. “Was his ‘marketing speak’ just another head-fake?”
Purcher reports, “Well, according to a new patent published by the US Patent and Trademark Office, Apple’s engineers never got the memo on Apple not being interested wireless inductive charging. In fact the crazy ones in Cupertino hit a home run with a winning in-depth inductive charging dock this time around. This design doesn’t have a funny-funky pole like past designs. No, this one has some pretty interesting twists and will come with a handy user interface and much, much more.”
