SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Aug. 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Mobility Electronics, Inc. (NASDAQ:MOBE) , a leading provider of innovative portable computing solutions for the mobile electronics device user, announced its direct entry into the consumer electronics market with the availability of the iGo(TM) EverywherePower(TM) 3500 Series and iGo DualPower(TM) power adapter products on the company's on-line store, www.igo.com. In addition, the products will be distributed by Ingram Micro, as well as through key resellers CDW, Insight, PC Connection, Buy.com, PC Mall, and eCost.com.

The iGo EverywherePower 3500 Series AC/DC adapter is designed to power and charge the majority of consumer electronic devices that have low power requirements, such as mobile phones, handhelds/PDAs, MP3 players, digital cameras, and other similar low power mobile electronic devices from any standard power source.

Using Mobility Electronics' interchangeable tip technology, the new iGo EverywherePower 3500 Series provides consumers with a single adapter for powering/charging virtually all consumer electronic devices anywhere and anytime. Delivering up to 15 watts of power, this compact and lightweight adapter eliminates the need for people to carry multiple power adapters for their different consumer electronics devices and can receive power from any standard power outlet including standard wall power outlets, auto power outlets, and in-flight power outlets found in airplanes.

When equipped with the included iGo DualPower accessory, iGo EverywherePower 3500 Series can simultaneously power/charge two consumer electronic devices. Additionally, the iGo DualPower can be purchased separately and used as a stand-alone auto charger.

"The need to carry multiple power adapters for mobile electronic devices has made these devices decidedly less portable than they should be," said Charlie Mollo, chief executive officer of Mobility Electronics. "With the iGo EverywherePower 3500 Series AC/DC adapter, users of consumer electronic devices from most major brands can leave home with just one lightweight adapter."

The iGo EverywherePower 3500 Series AC/DC adapter and the iGo DualPower are now available on Mobility Electronics' on-line store, www.igo.com, through RadioShack stores nationwide, and will be available shortly through a variety of additional distribution channels.
