Nokia working on 'self-charging' phone

A new research prototype phone from the company is able to power itself on nothing more than ambient radiowaves – the weak TV, radio and mobile phone signals that permanently surround us.

What a great innovation! Applicable to lots more than mobile phones I expect.

This:

Such wireless transfer of energy was first demonstrated by Nikola Tesla in 1893

makes me wonder why this has been so long to arrive.

I wonder if this technology could be ‘up scaled’ to heat homes? We need something quick so we can tell the Russians to feck off.

You'd need a massive aerial in your back garden.

Couldn't you just phone them up and tell them?

I was referring to their gas supply, they have the whole of Europe by the short and curlies.

They're building massive pipelines on the sea bed that will go direct into Germany and Italy so their immediate neighbours can't hold them to ransom.

1893? He didn't have anything worth charging.

So you want a mobile device that channels the ambient gasses from the air around us and then uses it to heat your water/house.... If you could just give me a few moments........................................
