Well butter my butt and call me a biscuit, because it's my personal belief that I have found one of the most perfect home tech organizers ever. Yes, ever. I flipped for Griffin's Powerdock the other day for its integration of my gadgets, but Pottery Barn has one-upped everyone with their Smart All-in-One.

Just because most of you were in love with Pottery Barn's smart tech speaker shelf, I thought I'd show you something similar with a bit more edge — the Rockin' Speaker Shelf. Forget the fact that it's in the "teen" section of Pottery Barn's website, this speaker shelf could easily be above a couch in a living room decked out with candles, some artwork and picture frames. Not only does it provide lots of shelf space and built-in speakers, but it also comes with a dock so you can charge your iPhone or iPod as well.

I've had my eyes on Pottery Barn's Smart Tech line since it launched last year so I was thrilled to learn some of the collection's most practical pieces are finally on sale. The line includes gadget-friendly shelves, desks, chairs and even beds that incorporate easy plugs so your high-tech accessories can power up discreetly. Most of the furnishings have special MP3 player plugins with a recessed area for the device and play music with a pair of built-in speakers.

Two things I don't like about Pottery Barn's Smart Tech Line: the traditional looks and the prices. With the addition of the Bento Smart Storage charging station, though, they've solved one problem! The modern, clean lines and simple colors (cobalt and white) would fit so seamlessly on my dresser and blend in with my jewelry boxes that it would solve that pesky "where do I put it?"

Pottery Barn has added some youthful and colorful flair to their Smart Tech furniture line, resulting in a skateboard shelf that plays your totally tubular tunes. It comes with two built-in speakers, easy-mount French cleats, and a dock that’s compatible with most iPods. The models definitely rids the Smart Tech line of its "understated and hidden" reputation, but I imagine they'd be pretty cute in a child's room.

I've been keeping my eye on Pottery Barn's Smart Technology line and whether the company's customers will take the built-in speaker and charger bait so I wasn't surprised when I noticed the company has rolled out Smart Tech items for their Pottery Barn Teen line. The Cushy Speaker Console, $399, is less expensive than the adult Smart Tech furniture and aimed directly at the iPod generation. The console features a cushy couch with speaker consoles, which are outfitted with stereo-quality speakers and subwoofers on each side.

With 84% of you saying that you love the idea of smart tech furniture, I was wondering how excited you would be about a speaker/shelf combination? The ultimate display speaker shelf can play your iPod through speakers that come with a volume dial and one input jack. Available in navy and white although I wish there were other colors like black and red.

A couple months ago I pointed out the fact that Pottery Barn is pushing "Smart Tech" to the masses with a line of furniture and desk accessories that integrate chargers and better hide cords. Turns out, the company is really serious about the line, even going so far as to put one of the designs on the front cover of their September catalog along side a pretty iPhone, iPod, shuffle and Canon camera.
For the most part the pieces look like regular Pottery Barn ballyhoo, but connect your high-tech accessories to power while keeping their cords discreet.

Thank goodness for Jean Aw from Notcot, without whom I might never have noticed Pottery Barn's new Smart Tech line. While the pieces may look like regular Pottery Barn ballyhoo, the line is actually made up of gadget-friendly shelfs, desks and my personal favorite, this Bedford Smart Linen Pinboard. The board is a staggering $259, but connects your high-tech accessories to power while keeping their cords discreet.
