Finally, a way to attach Steam Deck or Switch 2 to an airplane tray table.
We’re rather fond of Mechanism accessories around here, and Siri’s latest is something I’ve never seen before: a credible, folding way to attach your handhelds to an airplane seatback without becoming a Reddit meme.

That Hypershell exoskeleton I tried: a new version has nearly twice the range for twice the price.
Half the reason I liked the Hypershell was because it didn’t break the bank, but I’m still impressed the Hypershell X Ultra significantly increases power and range without increasing the weight! $1,999 on September 15th.
