I've just found this little device from Dallas/Maxim
http://www.maxim-ic.com/quick_view2.cfm/qv_pk/3261

For the MAX6684, Fan-Failure Detector with Integrated Power Switch.

It is a Fan Overload/Dropout sensor in a SIOC 8pin 1.25mm spacing pkg.
A handy little device in its own right.
But I thought with a little tinkering (Electrickery) on its input it may have various
other battery/device management applications. ;)

2¢ worth.
