The lady above has clearly had XP1 Power, but you might still be wondering what exactly it is! Well it’s fortunate that I can tell you:
As more technology and applications, such as Wi-Fi, 3G and Bluetooth are installed into new generations of “Smart Phones”, like Blackberry’s, iPhone’s and other personal consumer products. There is a considerable amount power that is required to run them, putting a large amount of drain on the battery. Leaving the consumer with the possibility of finding him or her self with no juice and finding the time and/or place to re-charge is not an option. What we have done is
give the consumer the comfort of knowing that they will always have a back-up power source within reach, their XP1 charge/sync cable with an integrated rechargeable 2500mAh Lithium-ion battery. This is twice the capacity of most smart phones, which in turn will give the consumer a 300% gain over the just relying on the mobile phone’s battery alone.
So there you go: USB cable + big battery = XP1 Power! Actually it’s a good idea, I like it – makes a change from the jacket/case-based solutions too.
Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career
when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has
now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the
next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas!
He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently
became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years
when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to
'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make
your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device)
isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question
of why you continue to use it...
His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and
infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the
occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience
in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with
regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
