Okay, that was an exaggeration. But really, the first statement that caught my eyes as they rolled over the specs for this iPhone charger called iPa was the line “Super Capacity – 3000mAh, make your iPhone as a whole day parter.” Though it took me a long while to recover from the initial blow that the name delivered (who would think of calling it “iPa”?!), it took me even longer to understand the above statement.

Just grammar or Freudian slip, you decide. Nevertheless, our conscience does not permit us to trail off without presenting both sides of the coin, so be informed that this “super charger” promises to extend your iPhone (3G, 3GS) talktime by 8.5hrs, online time by 8.5hrs and video playback time by a whopping 11hrs. All carefully “estimated”, ofcourse. And to say the least, the specs are mighty confusing – once we figure out how a device that measures 11.5 cm x 6.6 cm x 2.4 cm in dimensions can be described as being not bulky, but just a “little” extension to the iPhone, will we go back to understand the more complicated statement that we started off with.
