LG has announced a Wireless Charging Pad for mobile phones
Image Gallery (3 images)Wireless charging solutions for mobile devices have been trickling onto the market in the last couple of years and now industry heavyweight LG has announced that it's joining the sans-cable party with its own Wireless Charging Pad.
Measuring 6.29 x 3.54 x 0.39-inches, the LG Wireless Charging Pad (WCP-700) uses inductive charging to supply cord free power to mobile phones. The Pad provides audible and tactile feedback to ensure you know when the phone is placed correctly on the pad and LED lights indicate charging status.
LG says the Charging Pad is "poised to revolutionize wireless charging as we know it" but with no details on compatibility, availability or price at this stage, it's a little hard to comment on just how it will achieve this goal – we'll keep you posted.
it may hav a wire, but it eliminates havin a different charger for every phone!!

This is similar to GETPOWERPAD's wireless charging technology, right?

Oh I'll have a stab anyway!
For a "wireless" charger it appears to have exactly the same amount of wire as an ... umm ... wired charger? The only difference is it replaces a very simple connection (a plug!) with a complex and no doubt considerably more expensive alternative.
Can't wait.
