Abstract
A mobile device with a manually operated power source which generates power sufficient to operate the device when shaken by a user. A cable connected between the power source and mobile device carries the generated power from the power source to the mobile device such that the mobile device can be powered. The cable has a length sufficient to enable a user to hold the mobile device in one hand and the power source in the other hand such that the mobile device can be held stationary and used while the power source is simultaneously shaken. The mobile device and power source are preferably arranged such that they can be mechanically coupled together to form a single unit.
