No wonder Chinese excel so well!!!!
Today I read a news item on BusinessWeek (http://www.businessweek.com/ap/financialnews/D9D4MAM00.htm) saying China has now become the largest exporter in the world surpassing Germany who was the former largest. And a few hours later I see this post on a forum of where a Chinese person has developed a Mobile phone that is powered by Coca Cola. Yes you read it right!! It is Coca Cola the world famous cool drink that any Tom, Dick or Harry from ages 2 to 100 would know!!!
Zheng has been working on this revolutionary device for Finnish cellphone giant Nokia, and claims he has come up with a way of using sugar-based drinks to power mobiles. Any sweet drink, even sugar-sweetened water would be enough to keep the phone running much longer than lithium batteries.
The bio-battery invented by Daizi Zheng generates electricity from carbohydrates, using special enzymes as catalysts. In the process, the device generates oxygen and water. The designer claims his sugar-based bio-battery lasts up to four times longer than a fully charged lithium battery and is much easier to recharge: just pour some more sweet fuel.
Lithium batteries are very expensive and harmful for the environment, so if Zheng’s Coke-powered cellphone turns out to be real, it would be a significant breakthrough.

Wonder if Coca Cola is also sponsoring this research coz obviously, if this becomes a reality, then Coca Cola sales will boost like hell. Even if half of the reported 4.6billion mobile phone users in the world shift to this phone, its a huge boost for the sales!!! maaaaan.........
Adios........
