WildCharge makes wireless power available now

WildCharge is now taking orders for its WildCharge system for a number of cellphones.  It looks like wireless power is finally happening.  The WildCharge site is even offering one day delivery. 

You can buy a skin, a mat, or a bundle for several phones.  It’s a simple idea.  Place a case on your phone and place it on top of the mat.  Power is transferred simply by placing your device on the mat. 

The pad itself costs $49.99.  The skins are $34.99 and a bundle is $79.99.  Their products are currently available for the Motorola Razr V3, the BlackBerry Curve and Pearl and a “Universal Adapter” that attaches to mini-USB devices, Nokia, and Sony Ericsson devices. 

The site has lots pictures of other devices using the technology including the T-Mobile G1 and older iPods, but adapters for those devices are not available yet. 

At CES, we saw a couple of competing wireless power solutions with Powermat and Fulton’s ecoupled technology, but this is the first one that is actually available.
