Powermat is a first step toward
wireless charging of devices
; just drop a gadget onto the charging pad and charging begins wirelessly. Your device will need a Powermat-enabled charging adaptor, generally in the form of a case, phone back or dock. Once your phone, MP3 player or portable game system has been "Powermat enabled," just drop it on the Powermat to begin charging. It's like magic... if you're unfamiliar with the concept of magnetic induction charging.Download this episode now
