Have you ever been lost in IKEA?

Designed by Wireless Power Consortium, select pieces like lamps, desks, and tables will function as charging stations by incorporating new wireless charging technology called QI Wireless. The new furniture uses inductive charging, which is sort of similar to inductive cooking. Instead of heating a can of Campbell’s, a similar set-up can power up your phone \u2014 for example, the surface of a nightstand could transfer power to a device through built-in coils beneath its surface.<\/p>\n

There’s just one catch: It may not work for your phone.<\/a> Yay for Samsung Galaxy users! But beware: It won’t work for the iPhone.<\/p>\n
