If you consider "play and charge" to be a ball and chain, Microsoft's Quick Charge Kit for your wireless Xbox 360
controller is the solution you've been waiting for. It plugs into an outlet and charges a controller battery pack
in less than two hours or two batteries at the same time in less than four. The kit costs $29.99 (including one
spare battery pack) and should be available at EB Games on April 18. As you may know, regular battery chargers cost
half as much and have been availabe for decades, but they don't come in color coordinated Xbox 360 packaging.
Check back Sunday for JoyStiq's early review.
