HTC Thunderbolt Inductive Charging

That inductive-charging backplate for the HTC Thunderbolt just came out, which means keeping the battery-devouring device juiced is about to get a little less inconvenient. Instead of having to plug in three times a day just to keep that LTE radio happy you'll simply be able to rest it on a charging mat... three times a day. The part made a brief appearance in the Verizon shop for $39, but the rumored April release date came and went without so much as a peep from Big Red.

    Interesting, I always look into getting these types of phones, but the battery life is a real turnoff. This seems like a neat little accessory though.

    Don't they already have the same thing for iPhones? I could have sworn I saw a bunch of these charging pads around campus.
