[Boing Boing Blog] QUOTE Fuel cells by 2004. Good write-up of MTI Micro Fuel Cells, a tech start-up that is promising to ship a commercial fuel cell for personal electronics by 2004. I so want this technology -- laptops that run for days, PDAs that run for months. Link Discuss (Thanks, Pat!) UNQUOTE [Boing Boing Blog] From CNN Technology News There is a huge market for micro fuel cells, small enough to be stuffed into a pocket. MTI's first product will be a portable charger. Later, when a fuel cell runs out, just snap in another, like batteries, except they run 10 times longer without needing recharging. Cell phones freed of nightly recharges. Laptops away from outlets. Pocket TV. Outdoors away from it all, but want to take a piece of civilization with you, like weather radio. 10:28:25 AM
