Inductive charging for gadgets isn't new. The Palm Pre's Touchstone dock ushered in this cool technology and the Powermat folks have been applying this solution to all sorts of devices. This prototype Canon dock charges up to three  camcorders or cameras and it also transfers your photos and videos for viewing on a TV. It may not be for anyone but users with multiple cameras and memory cards plus the requisite battery  chargers and card readers and cables will definitely consider this smart, tidy and possibly energy efficient solution.
