TOSHIBA ANNOUNCED THE RELEASE DATE OF MOBILE DEVICES POWERED BY METHANOL FUEL CELL.

In March 2009 Toshiba Corp will launch its new mobile devices that will feature direct methanol fuel cells. The information was provided by a company's representative at CREATEC JAPAN 2008.
The cell phone can be recharged 10 times if the 50ml cartridge is full with 99.5% methanol. Although the cartridge has a current price of several hundreds of yen, the company hopes to reduce it to 100 yen (about $0.94).
