Nano-Radio

This is cool:

Researchers in California today report development of the world’s first working radio system that receives radio waves wirelessly and converts them to sound signals through a nano-sized detector made of carbon nanotubes.

Our cellphones, MP3 players, and radios are already integrating into one device. We’ll still have that device – or its equivalent – in twenty years. It’ll just be hard to see.
