This little gadget is amazing. With my power mat, this can charge almost anything. I charge ebooks, ipods and have even charged friend's phones. My friend came over and her phone's battery was low so I looked and sure enough, there was a charger for her phone so I could charge her phone for her. It's amazing- I switch out the charging tips and I can charge multiple items. This was well thought out.

I bought a powermat with one powercube and 7 receivers at best buy. (This package is definitely the best deal). It works great if your phone or mp3 player is compatible with any of the tips. The powermat charges our iphone and LG phones, but not the Palm Treo or the HTC Hero. Go to powermat.com to check whether it will work for your phone before buying.

One design issue. A storage cube for the tips was included in the package, but it doesn't hold all of them. Maybe it is intended to hold a couple of the tips when you travel. It would have been nice if it held them all.

The Powermat works great. Sure, you could plug in a charging cable for every device you own, but this is very convenient. We now have the pad in our laundry room and simply plug in our phones or iPod, position it correctly on the Pad and that's it. I knocked it down a notch because it only comes with one Powercube i.e. unless you buy other cubes, you can only charge one device at a time. All told, it gets pretty expensive when you buy and additional two power cubes. It's a convenient but "nice-to-have" product rather than a necessity.

The powermat and cube has eliminated many of my extension cords. I did buy an extra cube because my wife uses two cubes one for her phone, and one for her bluetooth. I use one for my phone my blue tooth has to have additional adapter which is not worth buying so it could be used with the cube.

I had a Blackberry but it needed an additional adapter. I replaced the blackberry since I don't need all the stuff required by it and I can use my phone with the cube.

We each have a Kindle so I need another cube and forgot to order it which AMAZON does not show the white cube by itself any more which cost $29.99. I don't need the Powermat PMR-PPC1 Receiver Universal Powercube (white) which cost $49.99 when you can get the cube for $29.99 at BestBuy. The PMR-PPC1 is not needed because when you get the Powermat at least like I received the accessories came with it and I need anymore accessories just the cube.

I don't know why AMAZON does not sell the CUBE buy itself anymore. The powermat comes with 3 section for 3 cubes so we have two mats and 4 cubes so I just need another CUBE so I will mostly get it at BESTBUY.

Love it. Use it everyday kids use it for their ds too? I charge my it ouch, and my evo

I used this with my Powermat and it worked fine with a older iPhone. I recommend this product if you already have a Powermat.

Combined with the Powermat, it charges quickly and eliminates the need for another wall wart or octopus outlet.

After product arrived, I noticed that I had to purchase another product to make the product useful. All items needed should be stated somewhere on their page.

A Powercube came with my powermat. It comes with a multitude of tips, including the ones that I use the most. It has a tip that is the same as the one on the Powermat Dual 1850 battery pack, so I can recharge both my phone and bluetooth headset simultaneously. It will not charge my HTC EVO 4G to 100%, but gets it close enough.

Product was 'as advertised', received sooner that anticipated and is an excellent travel companion (fewer cords and devices needed)
