They have 1 million times more energy than traditional batteries. Sure beats an iPhone Lithium ion battery, lol. They can last hundreds of years. Just give it time and eventually they'll nuclear batteries small enough to fit inside phones! And don't worry, they wont explode just because they have the word nuclear in them!

Just wait for the new iPhone with that octoband UMTS/GSM/wimax/wifi/LTE radio this might last an hour....jk but this would be so expensive...

Gee, that's all I need, a defective imported (for cost) radioactive battery on my hip. Next there will be a million future threads on how the battery made some poor consumer's leg fall off.

iPhone 7G perhaps? lol. But just imagine if this goes in a car. Nuclear reactors can make a full fledged Aircraft carrier (which is like a floating city) run for 20 years, one small nuclear battery could keep any device going for seemingly unlimited amounts of time.

I consider myself an early adopter, but I'll let someone else walk around with that thing in their front pocket for a few years before I try it. Though, honestly, there's enough radiation coming from my phone right now that a little more can't do too much additional damage to my 'next generation' if you catch my drift...

Well, if you've got nuclear power at home to 'fill up' the battery, than it's nice. The iPhone 4G will have a pretty good battery, but I think the iPhone 5G will be even better!

"Introducing the next iPhone 4G. We are now using a nuclear battery so you never have to charge your iPhone again. A battery life of 100* years, that's just amazing! And... this isn't just another battery, this is the best battery** we've ever created. And against what price? We're just starting from 1700 dollars!"

* All data is 'up to'
** Against the cost of your leg and balls.

I can just imagine the commercial: "This, is the new 4G iPhone. We've put in a nuclear battery for increased battery life. And for at a very small price... say your left leg. You will never need to charge your phone again."
