Umiushi Smapho 2800-Rechargeable Battery with No Extra Cables

PANS LTD. of Tokyo released the "Umiushi Smapho 2800," a palm-sized, rechargeable battery charger for iPhone and Android phones requiring no external cables or adapters geared directly toward women ages 20 to 40. It contains the battery capacity of 2,800mAh (same as a 4G). It's available in fire red, pearl white and ocean blue. The project only took the PANS one year to build the product.

The Umiushi Smapho 2800, came about at the CEATEC exhibition. The customer can leave the household with this portable charger using it as three things without the use of a cable and/or adapter: a USB adapter for smartphones, an iPhone/iPod dock or just a USB plug for recharging. This non-cable charger, is also a device which can be used worldwide irrespective of voltage.

Future for this device, "the company is expecting to develop sales channels at CEATEC JAPAN 2011, including smartphone accessory stores, hypermarkets, catalog order houses and novelties, both in Japan and abroad." -I looked something similar to this up, and it just included an extended battery charger and not the three other components. I think this has the potential to meet our job market in America, but would reach out to a further audience. Sounds like something I'd buy for myself considering smartphones today (my HTC Evo from Sprint) die after almost an hour of use.

Finally! I thought I was going to have to invent something like this. With so much work being done on cellphones these days it is too inconvenient to have to recharge all the time. Plus with so much international business now, lots of people who travel are going to fall in love with the fact that it has 3 major uses in one device.
