Samsung has recently announced that they have successfully developed a hydrogen generator and a fuel cell which use water for performing their operations. As a result, we all can expect water-powered cell phones to be available in market by 2010. The water-powered fuel-cell is capable of generating three watts of electricity and it can be used to power a handset for 10hours.

As soon as the handset is turned on, hydrogen gas will be produced by a reaction between the metal and the water and this hydrogen gas will then be passed to the fuel cell where it is made to react with the available oxygen so as to generate power. A user is expected to change the hydrogen cartridge every five days assuming that the phone is used for four hours a day. At the moment, most of the fuel cells use methanol for generating hydrogen.
These phones are expected to bring a significant change in the cell-phone industry once they hit the market in 2010.
