Toshiba crams a fuel cell into PMP concept
October 3, 2007 – 9:27 amFiled under: Misc. Gadgets, Portable Audio, Portable Video
A far cry from the concepts of yesteryear, Toshiba is really getting serious about its fuel cell PMP concepts, and this year’s model makes the all-important move of integrating the fuel cell power plant into the very back of the player. The unit runs on nearly 100% methanol, and discharges the vapor created through natural evaporation. There’s a capacity meter for tracking the amount of fuel you’ve got left, and the cell provides about 10 hours of 1seg playback. Toshiba’s aiming to launch the player in 2008-ish, and is showing off other fuel cell items at CEATEC to bolster its cred, including a prototype laptop — which you can sign us up for right here and now.
