USBCELL for portable devices coming

Geeks are like megalomaniacs: when it comes down to it, it’s really all about the power . Without juice, all your fancy gadgetry is just dead in the water. We’ve covered a number of solutions for your power needs, but among the very slickest are the USBCELL batteries from Moixa that let you recharge via your USB port.

Now Moixa’s looking to bring the same convenience to your cellphone with the USBCELL for phones and portable devices. The batteries are going to be available in a number of popular form factors, including major phones and Blackberries. They’ll be available later this year. No price is announced yet.

One wonders how the cell phone manufacturers, who often advise against using third-party batteries, will react to this. I’d imagine the USBCELL’s would be pretty handy as backup batteries, especially when you’re on the road.
