WildCharge adapters for iPhone and iPod touch ships in May
The folks at WildCharge are excited about the forthcoming WildCharge adapters for the iPhone and iPod touch. For now, the RAZR V3 is the only handset to have an adapter that works with the WildCharger pad.
So how does the WildCharge wirelessly charges up your favorite gadgets without plugging in? In the case of the Motorola RAZR, it uses a replacement battery panel, which contains the inductive receiver and has a sneaky little tendril snaking down to the RAZR’s mini-USB charging port. It’s not exactly the slickest outfit for Motorola RAZR, frankly, but it could be a lot more convenient than remembering to slot the normal charger in.
Eric Benderoff of Chicago Tribune, was lucky enough to receive a charging adapter built into a gel-type case that he’s been testing out. He says that the gel-type case doubles as protection for the iPod touch, and charges the same way as the RAZR. When the time comes to when the iPod touch is out of juice, simply place it on the WildCharge pad and the device’s battery charges. No plugs are needed, just the one that powers WildCharge.
The WildCharge adapters for the iPod touch and iPhone are expected to ship in May. But the biggest advancement could come when a universal adapter ships by the third quarter, Chief Executive Izhar Matzkevich said.
Price: WildCharge Pad - $60 and RAZR adapter - $35 at wildcharge.com.
