It actually doesn't have to be touching the pad, just very, very close. So they supposedly have the ability to meet the power but only over extremely short distances, and they have the ability to do it over distances (@ 1.5 miles) but with very low power. The technological leap is getting the power and distance, and it sounds like the MIT guy has a solution that could be viable for the home, but walking about outside with a cell phone would obviously be another leap.

Doesn't sound like interference is an issue because the frequency would matter - anything not receiving/sending around that frequency is unaffected.

i am thinking more like magnetic interference or something. like when you walk under a power line with a compass.
