The potential advantage is that runtime is limited only by how much methanol you carry around.  For the military, or people in developing nations, operating far away from grid power, fuel cells are a great idea.  For anyone living in a modern urban area, they are a ridiculous and unnecessary expense.  The cost of packaging alone, let alone the cost/effort of driving to the store or having Amazon deliver to you, makes fuel cells of any type impractical for most consumer purposes.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Scarhawk]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 12th 2009 8:08PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Toshiba plans to launch fuel cell chargers in next two months, may be lying]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/05/toshiba-plans-to-launch-fuel-cell-chargers-in-next-two-months-m/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/05/toshiba-plans-to-launch-fuel-cell-chargers-in-next-two-months-m/</guid><description><![CDATA[too bad the amount of energy to produce methanol is almost double the amount it yields.
