THIS IS AMAZING
Teen's invention could charge your phone in 20 seconds
Eesha Khare, 18, of Saratoga, Calif., Waiting hours for a cellphone to charge may become a thing of the past, thanks to an 18-year-old high-school student's invention. She won a $50,000 prize Friday at an international science fair for creating an energy storage device that can be fully juiced in 20 to 30 seconds.
The fast-charging device is a so-called supercapacitor, a gizmo that can pack a lot of energy into a tiny space, charges quickly and holds its charge for a long time.
What's more, it can last for 10,000 charge-recharge cycles, compared with 1,000 cycles for conventional rechargeable batteries, according to Eesha Khare of Saratoga, Calif.
BATTERY PROBLEM SOLVED
I hope this technology becomes available REALLY soon! It could change the entire electronic world!

EXCITED FOR THE HONAMI !
Why! what do you know? Come on, share with us!
No more than what's been mentioned already in this forum (I'm excited already based off of what we know) - but then if an insider were to make the decision to tell us some new information on the Honami which they decided that they could just about get away with telling and yet still be alright, then that would be awesome.

There are an awful lot of problems with ultracapacitors in consumer devices. If you're looking for faster charging, look at the
work of researchers at the University of Illinois. If you're looking for higher capacity but the same charging,
check out big blue's lithium air tech.

IMO this looks much better than original s4... & the back is particularly sexy!

Don't like posting too many questions but.. things just popped into my mind
@Ramu
You mentioned One Sony tablet few pages ago.. Is it the 7inch Xperia tablet rumoured at the first page? Or will it be another 10inch tablet for 2014?
Also, is Ray3 Japan only? 2014 device also or we're gonna see all these s800 devices in 2013?

Honami update!
Guys, Ramu was right on size, no 4.8 inch screen and quite a bulky guy that Honami.
Prototype thickness is around 15 mm with Sony trying to size it down to 12 mm.
Big ass camera sensor and Xenon confirmed!
Release window is between October and March '14 because of those production issues.

so there will be 5 more devices with s800 by the end of this year right?
The Honami seems to aim at the rumored S4 Zoom and the Lumia Pureview
Sony need to act fast, otherwise SS will take the advantages again
Btw, with Xeon flash and big sensor, that thickness is not a problem for me

I don't really mind, as long as they round the edges and add Bevels to make it more ergonomical. Kind of like the HTC One, which too is pretty thick, but the designs curvature mitigates it.
I just want to see it!

As long as the design and build quality are what they're rumored to be I don't really mind. Nokia's Lumia 928 is 10.1mm with a large sensor and xenon flash and looks pretty fine to me... But Sony should release before 2014 otherwise imo they'll fail. Other OEMs will have already released S800 devices and Samsung's next gimmicky, plastic success Galaxy S will be close to launching...
