Abstract :
Ah, the freedom of walking around with a sleek ultraportable computer, surfing the Web while also chatting with a friend on a mobile phone, all through invisible wireless networks! Unfortunately, sooner or later, the computer and phone batteries run out of juice and one is forced to search for their power adapters and tether them to a power strip. If only we could charge these devices wirelessly!
