T-Mobile has a neat new accessory showcased on its website. It’s called the 24/7 Xtreme Portable Power Solution, and it’s touted to bring the “instant, eco-friendly power for your phone.” The trick is in the fuel cells, using which the charger works similar to a chemical ice pack, requiring user to squeeze it and shake it. The Medis-made Xtreme then uses electrochemical processes to create electricity and do its recharge magic.
The device provides 20 watt-hours of electricity, which is enough to charge any smartphone several times over. And while we’re at “any smartphone,” this baby is compatible with standard USB, miniUSB, microUSB, Palm Treo, and Nokia ports.
Finally, Medis says that their fuel cell product is not hazardous and gives off no emissions or measurable heat. The price is unknown at the moment, so we’re wondering whether they actually sell these. Go figure.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
