- As technology rolls on, batteries don't. If batteries had advanced at the same rate as CPUs,
a double-A cell would contain more energy than a tactical nuke.
[fark!] - Batteries Fail to Keep Pace With Technology. [google news]
- Casio Adds Life to Mobile Devices by putting together a fuel-cell that could be a commercial product within a couple years. Cool. Maybe that's the solution to the power problem.
- Scientists may have created 'table-top' nuclear fusion. There's more information in Science Magazine and I'm hoping to hear from my friend Bob the Physicist, who worked on sono-luminescence, for a more expert opinion. It all sounds pretty cool, though. [strib]
- 'Tabletop' Fusion Report Elicits Mixed Reaction, which isn't too surprising. There hasn't been time for folks to try to duplicate the results yet. I doubt it'll be portable anytime soon, but it'd sure be cool to be able to strap a Mr. Fusion onto my trike and have lots of electricity available. [daypop]
- Or maybe the solution is a something as simple as a Solar Laptop.
