We’ve all heard of the technology existing, but never actually took the time to look into it.  As we were browsing through BBOS, we came across the interesting PowerMat and then were reminded of the new technology  and decided to share it with you for those who haven’t had a glimpse on it just yet.  The PowerMat is interesting gadget that goes well with BlackBerry and other devices as well such as digital cameras or even other cellular phones.  So how does it charge wirelessly on the PowerMat?  It’s not like you think it is.  Before you read on and get slightly disappointed, be aware that you must clip a “mat” to the back of the BlackBerry or other chargeable device before having it sit on the PowerMat.  The mat sticks right on the back of the BlackBerry, right over the battery door.  After doing so, you can throw it right on the PowerMat, allowing the mat on the battery door to make contact.  It’s not going to be a loose connection either between the PowerMat and your BlackBerry as it is a magnetic device (which most of you figured out by now) so it will firmly sit without sliding all over the place.  Continue reading to check out the full video.

    When you say the technology goes well with Blackberry's, you didn't mention that the device doesn't work with the majority of Blackberry models and the company has no intention of coming out with the module to make it work :(
