It is the Daily Mail so it might be complete fake news.

'The idea of piggy-backing wireless charging on top of existing communications frequencies is not new,' Apple Insider said.

'Prior research into the field has been promising, with finding smaller devices can be powered and trickle-charged using only Wi-Fi signals.

No satellite stuff for the moment (aside from a 43cm minidish that was on the house already), Samsung SyncMaster T27B550 Smart TV & Monitor, and a few computers...

I'm sure Nikola Tesla came up with the idea first, though I'm sure Apple will sue him for doing so... :-rofl2

No, but Tesla developed the idea of transmitting electricity wirelessly (he just lacked financial backing as it was considered to be witchcraft by the people of the time), so it ain't new... :)

I can't wait for someone to invent the tyre again... :-rofl2
