A company in Japan has cranked out a mobile phone charger that would make the Professor on "Gilligan's Island" proud: a charger that requires no electricity and no batteries. Just elbow grease. You turn a crank on the handheld generator for five minutes, and it gives your cell phone 20 minutes of battery power. It's a great thing to have in an emergency -- say in the event you're shipwrecked on a desert isle after a three-hour tour, and there isn't a plug within 1,000 miles.
