We’ve always wondered why iOS devices don’t have a MagSafe style magnetically attached charger, a feature that we love on the MacBooks, but the prospect of interrupting data syncing is an unpleasant one. But with WiFi syncing just around the corner, iOS is ready for it!
style="text-align: left;">Apple first applied for a patent on iOS MagSafe

href="http://www.patentlyapple.com/patently-apple/2011/08/apple-wins-key-patents-for-multi-touch-displays-magsafe-for-future-ipad-more.html">it has just been awarded.
