Back-up battery


This article in the NY Times is about the latest slim back-up power device to power your iPhone longer. It sucks when you're stranded without a charger; but it also sucks that most back-up systems are so bulky, it deters you. This one, however, is slim and sleek.
"The $60 Jump Start, from DLO, doesn’t cover the entire back of an iPhone or iPod. Instead, the device, black and rubbery, slips over about the middle two-thirds of the phone, allowing it to maintain its sleek shape. It holds on to the phone with 12 tiny suction cups."

It still fits in your pocket. Another nice feature is a button on the back that illuminates an LED status light. Blue means charged, flashing blue means charging and red indicates it’s time to charge.

Definitely worth it.
