Gim'me some power

Something I have been looking for already a long time, and apparently it's 'just' basic physics:

Wireless electricity

This really is something that is missing from daily life. Just start to count how many chargers and powercords you need to plug in and out every so often.

I do hope that if (when) this reaches mainstream consumers like me, the voltage and amperes can be set to one single standard value. And that devices and electronics will adapt to this single standard. Not having a standard around this will cause us (consumers) to have several incompatible wireless chargers in each place again. Aiding only in having to plug in the charger into the power-network, and not having to plug the device into the charger.

Having a standard (and the device internally adapting to the standard Volts and Amps) will enable us users just to walk in with the device into a WiTricity enabled room, and the device will be powered or start to charge its batteries.

Talking about charging, no doubt some people (power-providers) will want to have a system where you get charged (as in: need to pay money) to power/charge your battery-powered devices.
