I think I read somewhere that Amazon had said they might considering licensing the technology to one or more third parties that wanted to make covers. I guess they've put in something to prevent anyone from trying to make a charging cover without permission.



The only upside I can see is that at least it will prevent less scrupulous manufacturers from selling dodgy battery covers - you know the kind of stuff that doesn't respect safety standards and has a tendency to go BBQ. Still, that's not a great attitude from Amazon...
