Power Charging Pad

SplashpowerSplashpower is a new device not on the market yet (hopefully 2005) which allows you to charge your mobile devices by simply placing them onto a mouse mat sized pad. It works by using induction to transfer power between the mat and the thin Splashmodule that is attached to the mobile device. This means that you will need to have a Splashmodule for each of your mobile devices, which I believe could be quite expensive. The other question that I have is how are the manufactures going to support all the different types of connectors mobile devices use nowadays. Splashpower will also allow you to charge multiple devices at the same time. This type of device would seriously clean up my desk space as i would no longer need hundreds of different power cords for each of the different devices.
