Nokia cell phone charges on AM radio waves

[Lionheart]

Hey guys,


A new cell phone by Nokia charges itself via capturing random AM radio waves and storing them as electricity in its battery, thus self charging.

Sounds fictional (like in Tesla) but its supposedly working quite well.

Nothing "Fictional" about Nikolai Tesla, and his Tesla Coil. I have personally held a flourescent tube 4 feet away from a low powered Tesla coil, and had it illuminate in my hand, no electrical connections to it at all.

Nothing to worry about, it's just a prelude to Finnish world domination.. :icon_twi:

Bill, it'd be just my luck that if I got one of those, AM broadcasts would be discontinued!
