Charging blues over?

Google on eCoupled to learn about the potentially nifty new technology which is about to be introduced. Wireless re-charging in and of itself sounds great, but even better is the fact that the myriad and sundry different bricks, plugs, and power adapters could be replaced by a single gizmo. I don't know what you have, but I have a cable for my Blackberry, which re-charges off USB on my laptop. But I also have a wall adapter for it when the PC is not handy. And I have a brick for my laptop. And I have a brick for my MP3 player. And a base station for my cordless phone. I could keep going, but you see the point - replace all the power sources and recharging stations with a single eCoupled power pad or bucket, which doesn't need to be replaced each time you buy a new phone or MP3 player....its gizmo nirvana!

This sounds very high tech for someone who just finally got around to doing the XP SP2 upgrade last weekend.

Well Microsoft Vista ships at the end of this month, so for a bleeding edger like you I'd expect a prompt upgrade...let me know how that goes!

OMG I actually had to Google that! (Forbes does not recommend, btw)

LOL yea well I agree with Forbes, but its very amusing that you never heard of it. The Fish Head is officially revoking your right to use the work geek in any frame of reference....
