That's an interesting read Matt. Sometime around 2008 we'll probably see this trickle through to things like cameras. Would be a helluva patent to hold methinks :shock:

By 2008 they will be competitive with ethanol batteries, which will be able to be recharged as quick as you can pour more liquid into them.
