I saw an article in droid life about new battery technology that may be coming in the next year or so. I havent seen any excitement over this in any forums. Has anyone else heard of this. quore from the article on 11-15-11 ""We have found a way to extend a new lithium-ion battery?s charge life by 10 times. Even after 150 charges, which would be one year or more of operation, the battery is still five times more effective than lithium-ion batteries on the market today. ? Harold H. Kung Northwestern University"" I know its not now but at least we know someone is looking into it.
