Dell brings wireless charging to laptops

I am really glad to hear that Dell has officially released wireless charging for laptops. Granted, the laptop cost $2000, but it does have some other amazing advances (a camera that can scan) along with other advances. The laptop is also very light, sleek, and pretty powerful. For this blog though, I’m going to focus on the advancement of putting out wireless charging into the public domain.

I think in about 2-3 years this wireless charging will be standard on all laptops. This really excites me, because I personally HATE having to plug in my computer every night to charge it. Also, it’s my guess that the charging won’t overcharge the computer if it’s in the area of the wireless charger for too long. I have had this problem, running a couple of batteries through the ground by having to charge overnight, and if my computer is on and it’s overcharging, the heat gets pretty ridiculous underneath (I have a hole in a sheet to prove what a laptop left charging and on overnight can do to a batteries heat).

Anyways, I’d just like to give Dell the thumbs up on this one. If I wasn’t a Mac user, I’d be extremely interested in buying the new laptop. Hopefully Apple will imply the technology soon enough so that Mac users can enjoy the freedom of not having to use a cord to keep their laptops alive.
