Hi Ben, there are some sort of devices that can be described as a disposable portable mobile phone battery chargers. I'm afraid I don't know what they are exactly called but I know they exist because I used a couple of them in the past. They look like a small container with a connector to connect your Nokia to. Once connected they recharge your phone's battery, and when charging is complete you simply threw them away. Very useful when you can't get to an electric source. I'm off now to test my Googling skills and I'll post back if I find anything but feel free you or anyone else to do the same meanwhile!

I'll be heading out and about for a few days and I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to charge my phone. My e71's never really had the best battery in the world, so I was wondering if anyone could suggest any applications that have any battery related tweeks that I can apply? I've never really dug that deeply into symbian, so I'm not even sure if this sort of thing exists but I'm assuming that someone on here will know about it if it does. Obviously I'll turn bluetooth and wifi off, but I'll be using a few battery intensive apps plus the phone will probably act as a hotspot for a while. If anyone has any tips then I'd love to here them.
