    • ]]>     hotswapIn the middle of writing a fabulous article on the reason why you love Apple so much, and all of a sudden the dreaded battery low icon pops up. Mad creative flow is at stake here, and your nowhere near a power point, so what are you going to do? Inventor Ric Richardson’s has a solution for this problem, with hotswapable notebook batteries.
    The solution works very elegantly, and basically has a connector at the back of the battery, which plugs into the power connector giving the notebook power while you remove the old battery and insert the new battery. Then simply unplug and the battery doesn’t have any downtime.
    He has also gone and patented the idea (damn it) and is already negotiating with companies such as Lenovo and HP. Expect to see Ric driving around in Ferrari before the end of this year.
