Yeah yeah yeah...
"The current standard (IEEE Std 1725) has been in place since 2006, and the IEEE feel that it is now outdated due to the increasing adoption of connected devices.".... yeah yeah yeah does that mean you're giving us MORE JUICE!!! I'm a 3G using (soon to be 4G!!), web browsing, email checking, GPS navigating junky and I want *more*. batteries = #1 bottleneck and it's killin me haha.

For example they predicted a laptop could run for a month on one charge! They said they basically re-invented the lithium battery. I wonder what happed to that technology? 😕

I know, I wonder that all the time!!! For the time being, the only technologies we can hope for in laptops that can lower battery consumption are SSD drives, they save battery power cause theres no moving parts, OLEDs, which I heard are coming to laptops 4th qtr next year, and CULV chips from Intel, that stands for Consumer Ultra Low-Voltage, I don't know, my my opinion, I think laptop batteries need more attention than cell phone batteries. Not to say cellphone batteries don't need attn, just not as much as laptops. Especially now that Clear is constantly expanding their network, and people LIKE ME, are going to want to do things like browse the web out n about.
