Physics promises wireless power This is an interesting 'blue sky' article about the practicality of powering/recharging electronic devices without wires. There are some methods that are already out there. I think everyone with a computer has too many little AC adaptors of all different voltages to power up all those devices. It seems this kind of technology would be even more useful for people with disabilities in that it is harder to manage plugging in those devices if you have mobility or vision limitations.
