Each company sets its target according to the ever-growing market and based on the popularity of various stuff, that's why the people in the market research department get their salaries paid. Observing the increasing popularity of netbooks, small laptops, developed for web browsing and electronic mail, iGo has unveiled its new netbook charger that allows for this netbook trend to become more portable and versatile.

The nice people that work in market research expect netbook sales to increase by 99% this year; therefore, the iGo Netbook charger includes power tips for brands like Asus, Acer, Dell, Lenovo, LG, Sony, Toshiba and HP, being compatible with virtually any such machine on the market.

"Netbooks are the smallest and most inexpensive devices tech lovers can take on the road and still work productively," said Michael D. Heil, president and chief executive officer of iGo. "The ultra-portable iGo Netbook Charger conveniently powers nearly every device from one charger. As the iGo Netbook Charger joins our portfolio of universal chargers on our updated Web site, consumers will also find an improved online store that provides an effortless shopping experience."

Designed to be ultra portable, this little charger will provide you a charging means from any wall, car or airplane outlet and, at the same time, it's the perfect international traveler's companion, working with any voltage worldwide without the need of a voltage converter.

Encased in a small chassis, it will take as little space in the suitcase as to free up some space for more important stuff, like toothpaste, for example. It's already available on iGo's online store for a price of $69.99. iGo also thought about those of you that require just wall charging at home; thus, it sports an outlet-charging-only version for $20 less.
