Hm, I wonder how big the batter will be because the USB port is around 1/2". Very neat, i would defenately use these.

My friend at school has these. They're exactly the same size as standard AA batteries, and have a USB plug hidden under the "cap". They plug in and charge in a few hours.

They're wicked expensive though, so I doubt you'd want to use them for anything but a Bluetooth mouse you're always going to have near your computer anyways.

Or the Wii remotes (there are two usb ports on the back!)

I saw these on Think Geek, they are expensive, but I have them on my wishlist. :)

Does anyone know how long the last compared to a regular battery?

I would rather buy a AA usb charger for regular rechargeable AA batteries. Its a neat idea but I'll pass.

Ditto... I saw them a while back and wondered if I would ever need anything like that. I ultimately came up with... no.
