Is this new piece of IT equipment will become a "must have" for all travelers ? At least the idea is quite ingenious. Recharging your electronic devices while flying using the headphones socket installed on your seat (if your fly with a descent airlines as some other may still have air system audio distribution).
How it works :
From InflightPower’s website :
The Inflight Power cable uses an internal trickle charger that takes 3-5 min to fully charge, then outputs power to the attached device (phone, music player etc). It does this repeatedly, thus the cable charges the attached device every 3-5 minutes for 1 minute or less. Plug compatible with any standard USB charging cable. The Inflight USB Power unit plugs into the passenger seat audio jack and outputs regulated power to the attached USB charging cable/connector.
The Inflight USB power Unit cost about 40.- US$ and can be converted to over 700 devices with a series of tips using Gomadic's TipExchange technology. (Source: DigitalTrends)
