Air-Alumimum Fuel Cell

Quoted from the NY Times article introduced by SemiBull:

Dr. Tom Kreutz, a research scientist at the Center for Energy
and Environmental Studies at Princeton University, said another
potential niche market was in lightweight fuel cells for laptops
and cell phones because some people would be willing to pay a
premium for longer battery life. "The thing with fuel cells is
they're very expensive so you've got to find some value
proposition to sell them," Dr. Kreutz said. "Phosphoric acid and
PEM marketers are looking for places where people want to
pay for reliability and longer battery life."


I came across a company called Trimol Group (TMOL.OB) that is working on prototype air-alumimum fuel cell for cell-phone companies. Not knowing much about fuel cell technology, I wonder anyone here can comment on it.

TIA,

John
