...those who leave the cell-phone charger in the gym bag, a cure awaits: the Yuki Charger, a public, coin-operated slot-box that debuted in China six months ago. Flip a quarter in the Yuki, and get 10 minutes of charge time for Motorola, Nokia and other mobile-phone brands. Singapore-based InfiniTec has sold more than 3,000 units to supermarkets, hotels and universities throughout Chinese cities and a smaller number to venues in Hungary, India and Southeast Asia. NetBooth, a Las Vegas Internet-kiosk company, just purchased 100 Yukis at $500 a pop and will install...

For all the noise, Detox lacks the energy needed to keep Treble Charger going...

...RadioShack was truly awful. It was also the only unit that uses 900-MHz wireless technology instead of Bluetooth. First, you need to charge it for three hours via the cigarette lighter in your car (and in many cars, with the motor running) or else buy a separate wall charger for $15. Worse, the headset was bulky and hurt my ear. But the clincher was the dismal sound. "It sounds like you're on an international call," my sister told me. Definitely not the effect I was going...
