RCA has released an amazing piece of technology that was lost in the flurry of e-reader and 3DTV news at this year’s CES show in Las Vegas. The RCA Airnergy WiFi HotSpot Power Harvester turns ambient wifi signals into electrical energy that is stored on the unit’s internal battery. In short, Airnergy gives you free energy to charge your gadgets.
In the developed world, you can’t walk through an urban center without weaving through a web of wireless signals. WiFi is everywhere, either secured or unsecured, and those signals carry power whether you’re connected or not. RCA has developed a new technology that can actually harvest this free energy and either store it or transfer it to your gadgets. The RCA Airnergy WiFi HotSpot Power Harvester collects power from wireless signals based on proximity to the wireless base and the number of signals in its path. According to OhGizmo, RCA was able to “charge a BlackBerry from 30% to full in about 90 minutes, using nothing but ambient WiFi signals as a power source.”
CES 2010 didn’t bring tech revolutions with Pine Trail netbooks, flexible e-readers, tablets or 3D displays, but by this little device that could bring free energy to the wireless world.

This claim, as published by you, is total nonsense and just plain bad science. Publish a retraction or correction before your credibility is totally demolished.
Try asking RCA for some hard numbers (actual harvested power, how close to transmitter, power of transmitter in relation to legal limits) and see how quickly the claims fall apart.
I suggest your next story should criticise major companies (Nokia did something similar in June 09 through MIT) for issuing “bad science” news for publicity purposes.
This product is a scam. It uses the internal battery to charge the phone. Whether or not it actually harvests energy from wifi is insignificant. Since wifi-signals are low power (maximum allowed signal strength is 100 milliwatts) so there would simply not be enough energy to harvest in the first place. (Would take YEARS.)
