Rarely has the "lull" between trade shows given us so much to talk about. We kicked off the week with an exciting announcement welcoming two new members to the Pocketnow team, and since then we've barely been able to keep news, editorials, and videos on the front page long enough to read them. This feed is on fire. From ever-strengthening rumors about the HTC M7 and Samsung Galaxy S IV, to interviews with newcomers like Jolla, to new looks at old friends with BlackBerry 10, to modding and jailbreaking today's top smartphones, we've gotten a lot done since the last episode of the Weekly, ...

We've talked about wireless charging in the past and have wondered why it's not more popular. One of the reasons could be the relative scarcity of inductive chargers, another reason is the confusing variety of wireless chargers and varying standards on the market today. We've been hearing about inductive charging for our phones a few years ago, and even saw the charger that we'll go hands-on with today back in September 2010! Now it's time to put the talk behind us and go hands-on with the Energizer Single Inductive Charger. Energizer makes a pair of Qi (pronounced "chee") compatible ...
