[Coco] Radio Shack CEO Resigns

[John Donaldson]

     Has anyone heard of the NEW M1 Battery. The M1 is based on the same 
lithiym-ion technology. MIT's A123 Systems succeeded in shrinking to 
nanoscale the particles that coat the battery's electrodes and store and 
discharge energy. As result power density doubles, peak energy jumps 
fivefold, and recharges to 90% in only five minutes. This means
that a 10 pound battery would now only way 2 pounds and have the same 
level of charge.
This would allow a laptop to run anywhere from 8-12 hrs on a single charge.
