Put simply, Airnergy takes the energy created by wi-fi signals and stores it in a rechargeable battery. At CES, the device&#8217;s battery, which I believe was precharged with Wi-Fi power, was able to charge a BlackBerry from 30% power to full power in about 90 minutes.<\/p>\n<p><object id=\"\" classid=\"clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\" width=\"500\" height=\"308\" class=\"left gawkerVideo embeddedVideo videoObject_0\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/IMMbihbeIls&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;fmt=22\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><embed name=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/IMMbihbeIls&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;fmt=22\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" pluginspage=\"http:\/\/www.adobe.com\/go\/getflashplayer\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"500\" height=\"308\" class=\"left gawkerVideo\"><\/embed><\/object><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/cache.gawker.com\/assets\/images\/gizmodo\/2010\/01\/immbihbeils.jpg\" class=\"left image340\" width=\"340\" style=\"display: none;\"\/>Pretty handy, and supposedly available this summer for $40. Not too shabby, and very appealing considering how ubiquitous wi-fi hotspots are these days.
