Looks like Nokia is planning to make solar energy redundant by making
cellphones that can be powered by radio waves. A prototype radio
wave-powered cell phone is already in development at the Nokia Research
Centre where it will be able to harvest 50 milliwatts of power which is
enough to charge a switched off phone. If this technology works, then
it could be used for a variety of appliances like MP3 players and other
electrical devices that use around 100 milliwatts of power. Nokia plans
to release the technology in three to five years probably as an add-on
to solar powered cellphones.
