Believe you me,it is here with us.A US company known as WiTricity,has developed technology which powers light bulbs using wireless electricity that travels several feet from a power socket. WiTricity's version of wireless electricity,converts power into a magnetic field and sends it sailing through the air at a particular frequency right into the bulb.Soon,we will see wireless charging of phones,laptops,electric cars and running of trains.......How about wireless grid lines in the future? Old man about town....

@guka: Forgive my ignorance (plus I failed flat in physics) but if the power is converted into magnetic fields, what happens when using fork 'inside this magnetic field'! I shudder! Immorality: The morality of those who are having a better time!

I must have been in the same class with Sasha. I am also concerned about the health hazards with all the fields in the house.(TV. mobile phones,internet,radio and now electricity.) No wonder we are dying young. Its better to stay and sleep outside.

@Djinn, Actually,Witricity idea is first to do away with power cords in your living room which they have successfully done albeit with few challenges.Eric Giler,the CEO believes that this will not be a dream but a normal way of life in 5 years to come.Remember Ford and the four cylinder engine??......Watch a demo here.... http://singularityhub.co...electricity-at-ted-2009/ @Auntie, Tumia plastic...-:) @Murenj, Learn to light a fire first......buff..!! Old man about town....

@guka: Na kisu? Kuna visu za plastic? And Djinn asked a good question. What happens to people with pacemakers or braces! I can only see Tom & Jerry scenes in my head, with people ducking knives and forks! He he! But seriously, this would be a wonderful advancement, but in 5 years? Someone say Vision 2030!
