For those who have everything: Ready to rock

A rocking chair that charges your Apple gadgets — and more in our collection of bizarrely elite consumer products

"Gone are the days when you could impress friends with your old oak rocking chair," says Micasa Lab, the Swedish company that developed iRock ($1,300), an iPad-charging rocking chair. This high-tech piece of furniture doesn't just rock — it's equipped with a generator, a built-in iPad dock, and a speaker system. However, the iRock is not for the impatient. A whole hour of rocking, says Doug Aamoth at TIME, will only charge your third-generation iPad up to 35 percent capacity. Source: TIME
