today from the register....
A US developer is coming to market with a device which lets users recharge batteries using a foot-operated pump.
The StepCharger, from AladdinPower, gives approximately 20 minutes of laptop power after five minutes of brisk pumping.
This is not a great deal of time but, as AladdinPower customer services rep Max Smith told us, it could come in extremely handy if you're stuck without access to an external power source or a spare battery.

imagine how great it would be if we could power televisions and desktops and radios and hairdryers with our footsies.
oh, wait, as an american, it is my duty to practice my right to laziness.
please pass the terra chips.
