Actually that's not a bad idea. Just wire it up to a plug instead of directly to the phone... I'm not big on the idea of mod'ing a phone that's covered under warranty/insurance so if you can figure out how to do it w/ a micro USB plug instead, please share cuz I'd be all over something like that - though I'd probably put the induction coil on the inside of my hard shell case, rather than the inside of the battery cover - again, I'm leery about voiding my warranty/TEP :P
I agree that the mats do look a bit clunky, but it with the "power disc" option (second link from my previous post) you could have your EVO propped up w/ the kickstand and still charging since the disc is what has to make contact with the mat. But cheaper is always better
