USBCELLEvery once and a while a company comes along with something so clever, innovative, and just plain cool that it makes me laugh out loud. That’s what happened when I read about the USBCELL. As you can see from the picture to the right, these AA batteries charge from a USB port. Never again will you have to worry about taking a battery charger with you when traveling. What a great battery to use in your wireless mouse and keyboard!

The USBCELL is currently only available in the U.K. but will soon be available in other countries.

I was hoping that someone would release external batteries that could plug into the USB to supply extra battery life to notebooks
