Power Over Wireless Cell Phones?

Options
Hi,

Im just wondering if anyone as heard of 'Power Over Wireless' the transfer of electricity to things such as cell phones without a cable. Apparently also a cell phone company has taken out a patent for a device that switches the cell phone on when it detects a wireless signal and powers itself. So you dont waste battery power but when you find the wireless power it charges itself - pretty cool.

    Indeed I was reading about this in The Times the other day. Very interesting stuff!

    At the moment though high amounts of the stuff can cause radiation poisoning and cancer, so I dont think I'll be trusting it all just yet.

    Interesting theory though :)

    P.S I think the official term for it is Wi-Elec?
