Default fuel cells?

It seems that every day now some electronics giant is announcing their micro
fuel cell.
See: http://www.goodcleantech.com/2008/05...ybrid_fuel.php

What I want to know is whether these things have a place in gliders. The
first concern that pops into my head is that they must depend on atmospheric
oxygen which might not be enough at high alititudes. Anybody know?
