You can buy this second one as a kit for about $20. You'd have to
rewire it a bit to provide bus power, I suspect, but you don't have
to figure anything else out, which is nice. The nice thing about
this is that chargers for AA NiMH batteries are easy to get at Radio
Shack or Batteries Plus.
My inclination would be to pull the shroud off your USB WiFi dongle
and make a single unit containing both the rechargeable batteries and
the WiFi adapter, with a single USB connector coming out of it for
the Neo.
Let us know if you build one of these - I will do the same. :')
