Slight problem folks:

a WhattUp router sends out focused RF signals on the same bands as WiFi which are then absorbed and converted into DC power by a "chip embedded in the device".

“These transmitters can be built into household appliances, TVs, speakers and standalone energy routers,” explains Engadget. And therein lies the only problem with the solution: "receiving devices have to have the necessary chip embedded".

So you have to buy the router; which is only good for 15 feet.. any further and you now need to buy a repeater.

And each of your devices requires an embedded chip. Not an add on case, but an embedded chip for each device.

Don't see people installing routers in their vehicles either just to use this wireless technology..

Anyway.. my 2 cents (and that is all its worth).. time will tell if FC is worth what Vringo is putting into it. I guess we will see how their product line is accepted or rejected when it comes out.
