Motorola's P970 dials up USB power

Of course Motorola would most prefer you buy its new Portable Power P970 battery pack to power its own devices -- not all of which, ironically, posses mini USB ports to draw power from -- but that doesn't mean you can't use their freshly minted 1700mAh device to charge up that handheld, media player, GPS unit, or whatever else it is you might have that could use a quick hit of juice. As for phones, well, we'd like to think more than Moto, HTC, and smattering of others would get their act together on mini USB ports in our wireless devices, but it's not like the P970 won't have its uses otherwise.
