Abrigham, that link gives me a very good idea. It will involve a shaved mini usb plug wired to the inductive charging mechanism on the cover of my phone, that way nothing will be soldered, and I can easily unplug it if the TouchStone charger isnt around. Those mats look a little too clunky to be convenient, and I'd rather rig something up for 10 bucks rather than paying for something like that (I know, I know, I'm a nucklehead for trying)  |

Almost all new phone batteries will include a charging overload protection circuit. Even the cheap ones on eBay have overload protection.
It should be as easy as just soldering two wires to the + and - PIXI charging back and making a connection on your + and - on the battery. If you use a small enough gauge wire you should be able to just insert the bare ends of the wires before the battery is fully inserted.
Same thing for the TP2, as the batteries used are the same ones in the EVO.
I'm in for one and will report back with my results.

If it doesn't have an "i" or "berry" somewhere in the name most companies can care less. Just think about the premise with the "iPhone 4, EVO 4G" video. The accessories for the iPhone 4 will blow up on the scene asap as they always do and EVO will trickle.
