We need to get fuel cells to replace batteries, or work in that 'hybrid' way that a company did a while ago (lithium ion for peak power, fuel cell for sustainability)

Then it will be 'oh noes! my containers of methanol incinerated me!'

Also, good luck getting them on a plane.

It would be nice if they also standardize the laptop AC power connector.
