Every time I pass a Starbucks, I think of all the Grande Caramel Frappuccinos I have downed in recent years. It’s been 15 months since my last one, but I can still taste that intense sweet syrup. Yum, yum.

I also think of all the good times I had meeting friends and conducting business meetings at so many locations across America. While many can’t stand seeing a Starbucks when they leave the United States, to me it always represents a home away from home. Let me not forget the free wifi and the availability of a bathroom that is also enticing.

Now you are among the first to know that Starbucks will also allow customers to charge their mobile devices wirelessly by placing them on a Powermat in 7,500 company-owned Starbucks locations. Starbucks is partnering with Duracell Powermat so customers can charge their smartphones wirelessly rather than plug in at the limited number of power outlets. The mats are a joint venture between Procter and Gamble’s Duracell brand and Powermat Technologies.

Starbucks has begun testing the technology in Boston and San Jose. More than 100,000 wireless chargers will be placed at 7,500 company-owned Starbucks during the next three years in the U.S. Europe and Asia are also slated within a year.
