			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s the moment you&#8217;ve all been waiting for&#8230; the release of multi-colored <a href="http://www.quirky.com/products/15-PowerCurl"><strong>PowerCurls</strong></a>! &#8220;Get wound up&#8221; with a brand spankin&#8217; new line of our popular PowerCurls in pink, blue, lime green, charcoal, and our classic dead-sexy orange.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.quirky.com/products/15-PowerCurl"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2523" title="glam_0" src="http://aquirkyblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/glam_0.jpg" alt="" width="519" height="454" /></a></p>
<p>Designed by the Quirky community and Apple enthusiasts in just 24 hours, the Quirky PowerCurl is a clip-on cord wrap for Apple’s 45W, 60W, and 85W MagSafe Power Adapter. The Curl, as we like to call it, makes it easy to unplug and pack up quickly without having to untangle your extension cords the next time you set up shop.</p>
<p>Oh, and we&#8217;ve quirkified this thing &#8212; it&#8217;s bright orange and dead sexy. Here&#8217;s what else makes it hot:</p>
<p>- Both ends of the cord (the plug end and the MagSafe end) can wrap around the device, allowing for quick and easy unraveling.</p>
<p>- The included clip enables the plug end of your cord to clip to itself, just like your MagSafe end does.</p>
<p>- Fear over-heated adapters no more &#8212; PowerCurl elevates the power adapter for improved air circulation and cooling.</p>
<p>- You will be able to choose between the 60W or 85W model prior to device shipping.</p>
<p><strong>Don&#8217;t wanna buy one? Check out Twitter NOW for the chance to win one!</strong></p>
