    *ahem* John, what about Windows Mobile users? We have to use tethering as well... such as WMWifiRouter, which is, of course, paid software.

    My Kindle is my constant traveling companion. Having a couple dozen books with me in a lightweight, compact form is fantastic.

    My dad has used one of those privacy screens ever since somebody sitting next to him on a plane asked him about something in an e-mail he was reading.

    Timbuk2 bags are amazing. That's one of the best gifts you can give and should last at least 10 years minimum.

    Flaw: This requires you to have remembered to charge the charger. Better solution is an adapter that lets you toss two or four AA batteries into the box and power your phone anywhere instantly.

    How long does the instant charger take to charge?

    I will most certainly be picking one of these up. My gadgets always seem to run out of power at the most unconvieniant times. And having this little guy in my backpack will be clutch.

    Anyone know if you can use your iPhone while charging...in effect using the charger as a extra battery. This would come in handy while using the SlingPlayer app , or any video for that matter..

    Will Apple be upset that half of the photos here of the Duracell Instant Chargers do not include a photo of an iPhone? To be fair, it does improve the look of the Duracell product by having the sleek touch screen device next to it, so it is sort of win-win on marketing.

    It's 2000mah. Which isn't bad but it definitely won't cut it for a trans pacific flight.

    What's with the mini-USB "arm" on the Powerhouse charger? Are we meant to hang this blocky battery onto a mini-USB wall-charger somewhere to juice it up? Seems like it would be easier to just leave the port on the side of the device and plug it in with a standard cord.

    @JazzBri: It lets you attach the charger to a device that needs charging. Some phones with mini-USB (ie Motorola) has it on its side.

    @ripfire: search for "External Battery for Iphone" and its #7. Its the 5400 Mah one with the white circle on it. Comes with a bunch of adapters and two collapsible cables. Its literally 4 times the 3GS' capacity.

    The Powerhouse just looks cheap from the pics compared to the Instant Charger. Instant is sleek, Powerhouse is clunky... You'd think they'd make them both the same (sleek and stylish)...

    And for $20? Gosh, I'd buy one!
