The principle is the opposite of the electrical engine, with a magnet (on the charging dock). to Greg Myers : the problem with induction charging is that the device that is charged has to containt a heavy metal part (the one that will rotate during the charging) that must have sime kind of circular shape.

They shouldn't have talked it up for so long. It should be: Idea>Patent>Develop>Prototype>Certify>Produce>Hype>Sell. It still has physical contact via the 4 terminals on the back that are positioned in such a way that any 2 of them will contact a + and - at the same time. One charger that has really caught my attention is the one on an electric toothbrush (now I'm getting waay off track :) ). Braun have developed a contactless (read: no metal contact) induction type charger for it. Great design and revolutionary. (This type of power transfer however can be very energy hungry). Truly though, I don't think there will be too many out there that will pay $89 for this. Not when you have to put that bulky plug on the back. Maybe if it was incorporated in the back cover then they might have something. Sorry to be so opinionated. Totally agree with you. They shouldn’t have talked it up for so long. It

Until we're there (or close) the utility is low and only gadget freaks will be their market?
