When it comes to wireless charging, Splashpower is the boss. And with its announcement of two new products, the Multi SplashPad and Single SplashPad, it looks like the competition might be left even further in the dust.

The Multi SplashPad will allow you to place your mobile phones, PDAs, MP3 players, and digital cameras (as many you can fit) onto the pad and let them charge away, with no need for wires. That's right, no more searching for outlets or cords: Just throw your Treo, D50, and iPod on that sucker and power up. The Single SplashPad will do the same thing, but only one of your devices can be charged at a time.

And just in case you have devices in the house that don't support wireless charging (also known as 98 percent of them), Splashpower will be selling accessories that you can connect to your device to let it wirelessly charge.

Splashpower is claiming a number of companies are on board to equip their products with wireless charging capabilities. Specifics on that, along with pricing and availability, will be revealed next month at CEATEC.
