Camera Phone Reviews

New Scientist has an article reporting on a new Pee-powered battery that could one day be used to power devices like camera phones!

'The first urine-powered paper battery has been created by physicists in Singapore. The credit-card sized unit could be a useful power source for cheap healthcare test kits for diseases like diabetes, and could even be used in emergency situations to power a cellphone, they say.

Testing urine can reveal the identity of illnesses, and the new paper battery could allow the sample being tested to also power the diagnostic device.'

I can just imagine it now - you're talking on the phone and you get the beeping 'battery low' signal and you tell the person you're talking to to hold while you.... well you get the picture.
