Fuel cells are almost ready. They will solve the problem for a while (10-20
years?).
You will not recharge by plugging to an alectric outlet. You will recharge by
dropping a liquid into the battery. Like a lighter or a car.
It is expected that a cellular phone will last for one full month with a single
recharge.
