Even though we spoke a lot about fuel-cell batteries during 2008, as yet there is no concrete example in the public domain. The first will be probably the universal charger that MTI Micro intends to market in 2009.
The Mobion functions thanks to cartridge containing the methanol and will be able to reload via a USB connector the majority of the nomad apparatuses. A methanol load should make it possible to reload fully a mobile phone about ten time. Admittedly, it is rather large, but it is the first example of the beginning of the next revolution for the nomads in the coming decade.
