An article over at The Seattle Times makes me think of the old saying "Robbing Peter to pay Paul..." Glenn Fleishman says you can Tools turn laptop into power source for handheld devices - and yes, perhaps many of us who use the "Mini Sync cables" already knew that, but our newer members may not. "A few years ago, our cellphone batteries would poop out after an hour of talking or a day of standby, and our laptops could barely play CDs and handle word processing for two hours.
Today's digital devices are much more miserly power users, but digital road warriors are still stuck on every trip carrying several power bricks ? those half-pound or heavier power adapters unique to each device that plug into wall outlets."
For Pocket PC, I think one of the Mini-sync cables is the way to go. It's definately portable and can charge off of the USB port on your Laptop. Anyone else have some interesting power solutions for their Pocket PC?
