Apple has just been awarded a patent that will, once again, leave some scratching their heads. The idea is simple: universal batteries. That is - batteries designed to work in multiple devices. This is a bit different than stand-alone batteries, like AA or AAA, in that it's a special product similar to a laptop or phone battery that has the ability to slide into a variety of devices. One moment, a "C" battery could be in your desktop for charging, while the next it could be in your wireless mouse.
