I absolutely love my roommate's Wii remote wireless charging set. I wish he had one for his 360 controllers as well.

You can even get inductive rechargeable standard (AA, AAA, etc) batteries too, but unless they're in a toothbrush or something, they have to come out of whatever they're in and sit in a cup. But still, progress.

In ten years wires will hopefully be something we only see when building walls.

A few years ago, some engineers managed to get power to a lightbulb about a meter away from the power source, no wires. It had a really low efficiency rate, but it was still a proof of concept.

Well, there's the various cell phone charging pads.

Fight smart, not fair.
