battery charger news

50 cc methanol gives average cellphone 2 charge in seconds, http://www.toshiba.com/taec/news/pre...fc_09_580.jsp; http://www.pcworld.com/article/17411...l_charger.html

microUSB approved as future universal cellphone charger, http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33448863...ch_and_gadgets

Bring a bottle of methanol during hiking or camping will give unlimited supply of energy, if one can afford the $328 charger :eek:, a little bit more than half of a N900 :)

Re: battery charger news

I agree, scotch is better :), but anything attempted to get rid of the cord is in the right direction.

Biking and camping is slowly phased out with my family, of course PB is still checking for the best camp ground... , I am more into air travel. I think 50 cc liquid is still within limit for air travel, or 25 cc? Or, one can always book the seat with plugs, nowadays.
