This is probably one of the most revolutionary ideas ever. Wireless electricity! I've always had thoughts about this like "How could one transmit energy over a distance to power things like cars or laptops?". Well now it seems possible. Though this may be an idea for the distant future, I can still see how revolutionary it might be! ____________________ |

This isn't "wireless" so much as "being plugged directly into a wall". 
I'm doubtful if we'll ever see wireless power. ____________________ I dealt with it. |

Technically, lightning is wireless electricity ____________________  |

Yeah, but the sheer amount of power to travel through air is rediculous. Try looking it up some time. ____________________ I dealt with it. |

And it's harder to receive, store and use electricity when it comes in heavy spurts... ____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org

Posted by Xauna We also use static electricity (which just happens to be what lightning is) to shock each other, so we use it every day lready =P ____________________ |

Damn, Waldo beat me to it. Anyway, interesting development in short-range power transmission (think within the home), but until they can either bill us for it or put really annoying ads in it somehow, long-range transmission (think electric cars, no-battery cell phones) won't happen. The companies running the world are already choosing to not stop destroying it because that would reduce their profit margins.  |

Posted by NSNick /me has known that for a while but continued to use it as a way of subtly reminding Xk that it's broken. |
