According to Jack Evans of Air Transport Association, "Airlines are trying to differentiate their services. Some do it by the type of in-flight entertainment they offer; some do it by meal plans."
However, the real differentiation may be "the airline that allows travelers to power up their electronic devices," says Sean M.
Murray, founder and CEO of Battery Geek Inc.Airborne Electronics"Consumers are rejecting a one-size-fits-all model for in-flight entertainment," explains power broker Murray. "Theyre used to customizing their entertainment at home and they want the same flexibility while theyre in the air."The problem says Murray, is that few consumers are aware until it's too late that the internal batteries in their portable devices have a very short charge.
"Built-in batteries may provide less than two hours of play time," he reports.
"Thats not even enough time to watch the average movie."
"The GeekPod 100 makes it easy for airlines to let travelers enjoy their choice of music and entertainment on flights lasting 1 hour or 10 hours."
The GeekPod extends audio play by over 100 hours and video run time by as much as over 12 hours beyond the internal iPod battery.Unlike in-flight movies that require distribution of headsets, dimming the cabin, and collecting fees, airline-provided GeekPods would be "completely self-contained and self-sufficient," says Murray.
"And that makes them even more user-friendly, from both the passenger and the airlines perspective." Equally friendly for use in the air is Battery Geeks portable DVD player battery that "adds up to 14 hours of viewing time to the devices internal battery."
A major European-based carrier has already ordered over 400 of the model BG 9-12-130 DVD battery.
"It will be the best powered fleet in the air from a passengers perspective," says Murray.GeekPod ScienceThe GeekPod is a high density lithium-ion external iPod battery pack and smaller than the size of a deck of cards.
It is compatible with all the latest 30GB and 60GB iPod video models, as well as the 2GB and 4GB iPod nano devices.
"The GeekPod is even powerful enough to provide juice for Smartphones, PDAs and cell phones," says Murray, who notes that BatteryGeek.net offers an optional mobile tips pack for use with other devices such as the newest Motorola Q and Blackberry Smartphones as well as the Motorola RAZR.The GeekPod 100 is one of many next century power options offered at BatteryGeek.net.

How to Replace Ipod's Battery On Your Own
There are few products more popular than the iPod?except when it comes to battery life. The batteries in early iPods fail after a time (300 to 500 charge/discharge cycles or about two to three years) and just won't hold a charge. Even worse, there's no easy way to change the batteries. Angry owners sued and now Apple has agreed to some restitution (AppleIpodSettlement). That's good news if you're the owner of a third-generation iPod: You're eligible for a free battery replacement or (at Apple's discretion) a replacement iPod, providing you still have your proof of purchase and file a claim by September 30, 2005.
The news is not so good if you have a first- or second-generation iPod: You can choose between a check for $25 or a $50 store credit to use on Apple products (excluding iTunes). Well, at least that's something. But you're still stuck with your dead battery. What can you do? The simple (and costly) approach would be to go with Apple's iPod Out-of- Warranty Battery Replacement...

About your Apple Ipods battery life
The Apple Ipod battery is made out of Lithium Ion. Lithium Ion batteries give out a lot more power than the basic nickel based batteries. They have a longer life span and they are used to give power to lots of different items, such as laptops and cellphones.
If you plan on going on vacation without your Apple Ipod or if you plan to be without your Apple Ipod for any kind of extended period, you should only store it at half charge. If you store your Ipod at full charge, it will lose about 20% of power per year.
You will also need to store your Apple Ipod in a cool place during your vacation.
Lithium Ion batteries charge in two stages. During the first stage, the battery will be charged very quickly to about 80% capacity, then stage two will start, finishing off the last 20%. Stage two takes a lot longer to finish, because stage two will decrease the current while holding the voltage at a platue.
If you need to replace your Lithium...
