Finally, a better battery?

The Verge has a story on a new battery technology that could supplant the iron grip of Lithium Ion batteries. The new technology is called Iolyte, and has a number of advantages:

1. It is not flammable


2. It holds 10 times the charge given the same size

The product's manufacturer, Boulder Ionics (based here in Colorado), expects to have commercial products ready by the middle of this year.
