Can you hack together a mobile phone charger battery and a one of those devices that lights up (and buzzes) when your table is ready?
The other day, I was waiting for my wife to meet me at a restaurant and my cell phone died. So I was watching the hostess hand out the buzzers and thought, I could really go for one of those if it had a usb/cell phone charger battery attachment. Why not charge my phone while waiting? Not necessarily fully just somewhat while I wait.
I am thinking a bigger battery and a few usb ports added to the "buzzer", right? You know the ones that light up and buzz after you put your name in with the hostess. Besides, the hostess is always placing the devices in the charger/cubby so the batteries should be readily available. also, the restaurant could totally tie in a promotion like a drink, an appetizer and a "free" charge for $9.99.
