Ah, the
wireless charging . There is a long time and is based on a principle sufficiently simple, but is not yet so widespread in the consumer. One of the first devices with wireless charging was the
Palm Pre , now defunct but still an example for more than one aspect. The "problem" of the Pre, as the current smartphone, you
need to remember the cord and charger - even if inductive . With future
Ultrabook this need may be to fall, as
Intel has shown a prototype at Computex that can load an inductively Android smartphone positioned on one side . That's right: no need for cables, or special arrangements phone.
It is sufficient to apply a small device to a smartphone and put it to the right Ultrabook , in contact with the body. You do not need to do or remember to bring cables, adapters, power supplies and anything else. A godsend for someone like me, you just carry around laptops, tablets, smartphones, MP3 players and more.
Intel is pushing you to the inductive load is integrated within future devices in order to prevent add-on weighing and encumber. Certainly, however, are willing to sacrifice some 'weight and footprint for not having the hassle of having to remember cables, wires. Surely it is not a bad idea that will hopefully be implemented in the future on all notebooks. We'll have to wait a few more years, but it might be worth really worth.
