I took a look on QVC today (http://www.qvcuk.com/) but could not locate =
much in the way of chargers.
But for Father's day gadget freaks:-
I did see a Solar Powered Charger for AA and AAA batteries at =C2=A340. =
Perhaps expensive, but I do like the idea that I could charge up a batter=
y anywhere, just so long as there is a light source.
A small wind up Nokia phone charger also appealed. 3 minutes of winding =
gives you a charge worth 3 - 8 minutes talk time.
But of course, for the man who has everything - they'd no belly button br=
ushes. (Smile)
