Couldn't the wireless signal used to transmit energy be used to transmit data as well? Anyway without a solid power source WiTricity would seem to be kinda non applicable for larger areas, but it's still good enough for small home chargers and stuff. From what I remember about Tesla claiming that he would either use the ionosphere as a way to either amplify or bounce the signal. It's hard to separate fact from fiction with that man.
