Power your iPhone (and other gadgets) for up to a week - Gadling reviews the ZAGGsparq {Gadling}
Jan 31st 2010 9:40AM Macrumors has a lengthy thread on this. At least one forum member commented that they were told Zagg is no longer selling this and that a Zagg Sparq2 is in the works.
The reviews were decidedly mixed - my own testing was terrible and I sent mine back. On three occasions the Zagg Sparq drained power from my Nexus One overnight instead of charging.

Droid experiencing external speaker problems, could be a software issue? {Engadget}
Nov 15th 2009 3:16PM I took my Droid back for a swap due to my callers' voices being very muffled. The replacement is very similar sounding leading me to think that the sound may just be terrible and not a hardware flaw.
World's first waterproof solar cellphone from Sharp makes Somalian pirates say arggg! {Engadget Mobile}
Apr 20th 2009 7:46AM These solar doo-dads never seem to do much other than look good in press releases. LOL to the car battery!!
Engadget Podcast 142 - 04.18.2009: 5th birthday edition {Engadget}
Apr 19th 2009 9:23PM One of the best podcasts - great job by everyone.
Palm announces webOS SDK availability, Palm OS emulation for Pre, new cloud services {Engadget}
Apr 1st 2009 9:35PM I keep looking for the (more) link to get to the big news..
Will the developers get to hold the Pre -- or does Palm send someone out each day ..
Footnote in history:
Palm Pre - an ambitious device most noted for simultaneously sinking two formerly large corporations, Palm and Sprint, who unwisely and unfortunately hung large parts of their future on the often delayed and much hyped operating system.
Twitter integration could come to OnStar {Engadget}
Mar 28th 2009 8:54PM Does Onstar read emails even? If not, how likely is it that they'd add Twitter before adding email? Something doesn't sound right.
Facing App Store limbo, StarPlayr developers give up and go home {TUAW.com}
Mar 8th 2009 3:38PM Anyone ever try to cancel Sirius radio? That's the biggest scam running. 1 hour and two internal phone transfers and maybe....
Too bad about uSirius/Starplayr - it worked pretty well for me in testing.
I don't think Sirius is going to stay around.
Palm Pre handled, handed out to celebrities? {Engadget Mobile}
Feb 23rd 2009 11:55AM Maybe they threw them in an uncontrolled setting because they figured celebrities wouldn't be able to figure them out.
Also could swear there was previous press somewhere about PRE being in celebrity gift bags (uncertain if this event) but only in voucher format.
T-Mobile's webConnect USB modem launching March 25? {Engadget Mobile}
Feb 22nd 2009 7:24AM T-Mobile. 3G. This is an early April Fools, right?
Half of my T-Mobile data in Connecticut is good old GPRS...not to mention that T-Mobile Wi-Fi is out of Starbucks (yes you can still roam but you have to know to sign on to attwifi).
Palm investor McNamee details Pre's neat location-based features {Engadget}
Jan 19th 2009 2:54PM Still trying to figure out what market the Palm Pre is going to conquer. Other than the press and geek crew, most other markets seem to be doing pretty well with what they have.
Email/Corporate = RIM / WM
Media/Consumer = Apple
Soccer Mom's = RIM
This device would have to execute flawlessly to come close to the type of carrier defections that Apple iPhone had.
