Seen this on Engadget today, looks promising to me. Its a very thin disc flat style qi charger, the article claims a $60 price tag but no details on when it will be available.

Got a nifty messenger bag that can now house my electronics. Today I got in my Powerbag Messenger bag that I got from Woot! It's just a great made bag and the 3000mAh battery is just gravy IMO. You can go to Best Buy and get a 6000mAh for about 50bux but I opted not to. Reason being is because I have a 10000mAh NewTrent pack as well as a 3200 Anker Slim portable battery pack. So with all those, I think I am "ok" with power lol. I view having the Powerbag as a stop-gap/emergency source if my two other battery packs get depleted. I mean all you need to do is plug this sucker in with the supplied charger and plug it into the wall with all your toys connected in the bag. There is a 2.1 AMP USB port inside the bag that will charge faster than the "quick" charge pockets located on the outside of the bag. One is for the iPhone/iTouch but that will be rarely used by my daughter's OLD 2nd gen itouch lol. To the left, is a BIGGER pocket where houses the micro USB and mini USB port. That will house my Nexus4. Inside has a spot for my Nexus 7 tablet where I can run a usb cable to the internal usb port located next to the battery (win!). There is also a spot for a laptop that can hold a laptop up to 16". Great for travel! And of course you can't charge your laptop battery lol....
To turn it on just press the button and boom! Your automagically charging! And if you have the bag plugged in, the devices will charge first before the internal bag battery, which is cool!
Anyway, it's a fantastic bag if you can get your hands on one cheap like on Woot! The quality is really nice and is as good if not better than the Maxpedition bags which I have as well. Nice and durable too!
Any questions let me know!
Powerbags are excellent.
I managed to snag a backpack one when the groupon was only $39.
Well worth it!

Sorry dude, I got it from Woot.com a few days ago and that only cost me 40 bux plus shipping. My model is discontinued, but retails about $140 at best buy. You can try ebay or amazon, but probably run you about 80-100 bux. Kinda expensive for a bag, but it is worth it if you need a bag. I didn't need one, but like you, I is an accessory whore lol.
AND YOU CAN'T HAVE MINE!
LOL

aaaaaaahhhhh damn it i want!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I did like the sling bags they had as well, but wouldn't fit my 15.6" laptop when I travel, so I opted to go with the messenger. The backpacks are nice too!
More PICS!!!
What you see is the roomy interior. The slots where you can slip in your laptop and/or tablet. In my case a N7 with Seidio Active case fits with room to spare! Then you see the exterior pockets with the micro and mini usb cords and then the ipod one next to it (glad they made that pocket smaller lol).
And I couldn't resist showing the cool LEDs in the bag. Reminds me of the Cylon's from Battlestar Galactica lol.
I may buy one I got a targus laptop bag and a swiss gear one maybe I'll sell them and buy one of these hmmm

Look at what I found!
$51
http://www.amazon.com/Powerbag-Mess...=UTF8&qid=1362606271&sr=8-2&keywords=powerbag
I might get one.
Personally, I think you can save a lot more money if you just get a external battery pack. Throw it in your backpack or messenger back and you can use it whenever you need it. Unless you really want a bag then this could be a good choice for tech enthusiast.
I always have this in my jansport backpack.

NICE FIND! Black one is 71bux? Get the grey one! LOL It's a really REALLY nice bag for the price. And 20 bux of the 51 can be validated for being the battery cost (yes I'm all about validation in my life lol).
You know what? Woot.com was bought by Amazon a few years ago, so this doesn't surprise me! LOL

Rocketfish from Best Buy. It has both a connector for air vent mounts, or a suction cup mount for the windshield. 25.00 bucks, works great for me.

I am looking for stand and spare battery charger like I had for my Fascinate & my Gnex. Battery goes into compartment, phone goes into front groove either horizontally or vertically. A micro USB "Y" cable connects to phone & to charger. Handiest thing I have used in a long time. Can't find one for S4.

Looks like the one for the Gs3 will work. I'm told that the GS4 battery will fit in and charge. I'm going to give it a try.

My old phone cradle/charger from my sprint S2 (Epic 4G touch) fits the S4 perfectly.

And......., no. Doesn't work. Gs4 battery is much too wide to fit in the slot.

Anyone know where I can get either a genuine Samsung wireless charging cover, or at least one that doesn't have the lump in it from the contract points?
Nobody?

got mine on amazon. I even went to a samsung store in korea while I was there on vacation and they didn't have any. they're almost always out of stock on amazon though.
Yeah I've noticed that, it's crazy. All I can find genuine is the flip ones.

I went with the fonesalesman slim power card 0.5mm qi receiver. Very slight hump from it with the stock back. Used for over a year now without issue.
i got this one works good for me

I bought a card that claimed to be super slim and it left a huge bump. So I figured if I bought a 3rd party battery cover it's be at least no bump. But it was just cheap plastic with the card glued to it, still a big bump. I'd rather just find a genuine one.

I bought the genuine one when the phone came out, and it died a month out of warranty. Been using the flip version since, but all 4 of my batteries are getting flaky. Note 7 shows up Monday.
