CellFreakz - cellular phone trend updated

Now this idea is smart, though technically speaking it is simple.

A cellphone charger that shuts itself down when your battery is already full, presented by Carphone Warehouse. Though its physical design is aesthetically rather unpleasing, but the function is said to "save up to 300,000,000 kWh of electricity yearly – the equivalent of £85 million", assuming that all UK residents use this. An unrealistic assumption, however.

So care to buy one? It is £23. But speaking about environmental friendliness, so what will happen with your existing charger? Recycle it or what? It would be even greater for Carphone Warehouse if it provides trade-in with our current charger.
