The Freecharge is a wind up mobile phone charger which lets you keep your handset topped up with a quick twirl of the wrist. Well OK, it’s more like a minute of cranking will give you five minutes chat, but still it looks to be cool technology, and very useful if you’re out and about a lot.

It is out this month for around �60.00 and you will be able to get adapters for most of the popular phones within a few weeks. [via slashdot]
