Unique Charger or Witricity?

Today attracted my attention the news on the definition of unique charger for all electronic devices: UCS (Universal Charging Solution).
Starting from 2010 all devices should adopt this UCS system that will be based on mini USB connector to facilitate users' life and reduce electronic trash. I think that this is a good think but not the final step :-)

Personally I think that is more interesting and useful the concept of charging devices without the use of any charger at all. Witricity is the solution for that.
Studies on wirelessly power electronic devices has been around from a while; Nikola Tesla made experiments since from late nineteenth century by transferring energy from a source to an incandescent light bulbs.
For example systems that charge wirelessly power devices could be distributed around in the world or in your house or car. When you are near one of these, your mobile phone will be recharged automatically.

Lets see in the near future what will be. For now PowerMat is going to sell a wireless charger at low price, some information can be found here: http://www.powermateu.com/pm_uk/home/

Thanks for reading ;-)
