Wow.. Samsung's latest technology make it possible for a cell phone to be powered by water.
"When the handset is turned on, metal and water in the phone react to produce hydrogen gas," explained Oh Yong-soo, vice president of Samsung Electro-Mechanics' research center. "The gas is then supplied to the fuel cell where it reacts with oxygen in the air to generate power." Other fuel cells need methanol to produce hydrogen, while Samsung's needs only water.
Since the micro-fuel cell can generate up to three watts of electricity, it could be used in mobile devices, the company said. The new fuel cell could power a handset for 10 hours, twice as long as rechargeable batteries.
That's technology.. Really amazing!

That is very interesting! Water powered cell phones ... can they make ones that are recharged by oxygen? Now that would be functional!
Have heard of numerous instances when cellphones exploded due to water getting into them..Hope this one is safe :O
I think the girl is cooler than the cell phone.. =P
I liked the girl more than the cell phone. But teh phones useful too. Water powered. kewl.
Thats great! It's another frontier for a modern technology. I would like to try it but it seemed like a complicated feature but it is cute.
Damn, a water powered cellphone? Whats next, oxygen powered? Pretty cool though, technology is jumping in leaps and bounds.
