I got it a week ago and I love it! 2 mobiles and 2 iPods charged in one place, with only 1 wire and using only one AC outlet. And for the important stuff, the Blackberry's cover is real thin so it fits intu my purse just as before.

Haven't tried it but I've heard about it and it seems really cool...

So it's a cover that goes on the object? Or is it something sticky you put on it? I'm a bit confused as to how the receivers work... thanks for the info so far though!

^^It depends on the item. Things like an iphone or ipod where you can't remove the battery cover you would slip it into the iphone/ipod cover that they sell and then place it on the mat. If it's an item like a blackberry where you can remove the battery cover you would take the battery cover off and replace it with the battery door cover that powermat makes and then place it on the mat. Or you can buy the powercube which is a universal adapter that has a bunch of different attachments to plug into the device that you own and then the cube sits on the mat.

Thanks for clearing that up, that makes so much sense!

Wow, what a cool idea!

sounds like a good and interesting concept but then going there and seeing all the adapters and docks and other stuff you have to buy... makes it a little cumbersome and not as convenient as it sounds. might as well buy a power strip for $2!
