Altiods Tin Boost Charger for PDA, Mobile Phone, and iPod/mp3 Players

There is a kit available to make a boost charger out of an Altiods gum tin. The kit requires some soldering, but is suitable for a beginner. The finished charger uses two AA batteries, and will charge any gadget that uses USB. I have ordered two kits ($19.99 each). I plan to use them on my Dell Axim x50v, my Palm Tungsten C and Tungsten T5, and my new Sprint PPC 6700 PDA phone.

The kit can be found here.
