razor, powered by ethernet

the US Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers was due to extend has extended the core 802.3 ethernet standard this month to include specifications for the power over data cable technology. electric plugs, power outlets and voltages were different all over the world but ethernet used the same small range of connectors and cables no matter where it was installed.

just when all indications pointed to a strictly wireless future comes this new development. ideally, all new networks would carry power, and all new power lines data in the future. i'm not so sure on wireless power transmission though.
