Slight clarification: It’s battery powered and has no energy generation or harvesting capability.

  If we're going to gatekeep "self-powered" this hard, might as well clarify that energy cannot be created.

    Let be honest though. Do you really consider something like your phone "self powered"? I know I wouldn't. My light switches that are powered by the click, those I would.

      Pfft, this thread got derailed rather quickly; Lets get it back on track! I welcome our new Credit Card sized computer overlords. I would pay dearly for a credit card sized eink display, that could feed HN, from Wifi, and even with a 2Lb lead acid battery, it would be a joy, and head and shoulders above my current ball and chain type android cell phone. Make it so.

    I feel like “slight clarification” and “gatekeeping … this hard” are at opposite ends of the pedantry scale and I didn’t say it wasn’t “self-powered”, I merely clarified its capabilities.
