Wireless Power Group Sees Standard Within 6 Months
alphadogg writes "The group developing a standard for wireless charging expects to complete its first specification within six months, opening the door for makers of cell phones, digital cameras and other devices to bring compatible products to market. Wireless charging lets consumers place gadgets on a mat that plugs into a wall outlet, and have the devices recharge automatically without needing to plug in each one. Apart from the gee-whiz factor, it's supposed to make life more convenient by letting people walk into their home or office, toss their gadgets onto a mat to recharge and forget about them."
It would be okay if you could be stuffed plugging it into USB whenever you sat down but thats too hard.
That’s too hard?? What kind of lazy ass are you??

Unbelievable. That is exactly the kind of attitude, that natural selection is there to weed out.

Un-fuckin-believable. I must save this, put it into a sig. It just blow my mind...

Any sufficiently advanced intelligence is indistinguishable from stupidity.
I skimmed the comments on this article just to find one like yours, whining about "oooh scary radiation". Congratulations!
Note that by your reasoning, you should be equally scared of light bulbs.
