I think that this is a good thing, in general.
However, we should remember that what we are seeing is a cell with a recharger already included. I have to really wonder if this is actually more environmentally friendly. As each cell wears out, then each recharger will have to be thrown out or recycled.
That being said, I think that this does have something to offer, in that it might be easier to recharge the cell. We don’t have to bring a seperate recharger with us, because it’s already compact enough to drag along. Also, the manufacturers don’t need to create some kind of a wall rat.

“According to the site it’s ready to be used again in minutes”!!! Actually, the site states, “the charge should take about 5 hours by USB and the light should go off when USBCELL is fully charged.” ( http://usbcell.com/support/faqsection/5 ). For me, 5 hours is much more than “in minutes”. I don’t see what’s so hard about placing batteries into a recharger.

Please wait until to try it before doing the review.

I don’t mean to be cranky but I could have simply read their ad — the review does not add any content. I got most way done and felt like a dope for reading it.

great idea except that usually one uses 2-4 batteries at a time…a battery-charger allows for recharging in multiples. charging them one at a time would not be tolerable “for those short of patience.”
