Here’s a nice idea: a charger for your G1 Android-powered phone that simultaneously charges the phone and a second battery. Peter complained about the battery life of the G1, so maybe picking up a spare battery isn’t a bad idea if you live and die by your smartphone. For $17 at netimes.com, this is a pretty easy way to ensure your Android always has the juice it needs!













Any idea where to get a second battery for the G1? T-Mobile doesn’t have them, HTC doesn’t sell them, and the two companies I have found online that claim to have them, on further questioning of the companies, turned out to say it was “a mistake” and not actually have anything that will work in the G1.
Actually, I just bought three of them directly from HTC. For while it’s true that they don’t sell accessories via their web site, if you call them on the phone they’ll be happy to as they have thousands of them in stock for about $20 each.
