Coke-powered cell phone?

We've heard of solar-powered phones, hydrogen-powered phones, and even wind-powered phones--but Chinese designer Daizi Zheng's sustainable cellphone concept is powered by an unusual and unexpected source: Coca-Cola soda.

The Design Blog describes the Coke-powered phone:

Designed for the Finnish brand Nokia, the Eco-Friendly cellphone runs on an innovative battery which makes use of enzymes to generate electricity from carbohydrates. The new mobile phone concept apart from harnessing clean energy from sugary drinks like Coke or Pepsi, which generates water and oxygen, also works about four times longer than contemporary lithium batteries on a single charge. Moreover, the handset is fully biodegradable.

cool idea.. but Coke and Pepsi aren't super cheap.. how long would the battery last on a can of coke?

Supposedly 3-4x longer than a standard Lithium Ion battery charge.

Huh. What'll they think of next?

I can drink my phone bat? I want a Shiner battery damn it.

Makes you think about what the soda does to your stomach now doesn't it? Pardon me, time for a Mountain Dew lol

AFTER I drink it?

Err..use your imagination folks
