Could this solve the problem of charging subdermals?
The team from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology
(KAIST) demonstrated the system that consists of two 10-foot long boxes
backed with magnetic coils and ferrite rods. Using a technology called
Dipole Coil Resonant System (DCRS), the prototype packs enough of a
punch to charge 40 cellphones simultaneously, as well as larger devices
like portable TVs and laptops. The technology is scalable, so a smaller
version could be made for home use. DCRS is a development of technology
developed at MIT several years ago called Coupled Magnetic Resonance
System, although the Koreans say that the new version is more efficient
and has a longer range.

Do we have any specifications on this? size, power throughput, any ratios between them, range? anything like this would be great.

Dipole Coil Resonant System ... a very fancy name for an inductive charging mechanism. Magnetic resonance isn't exactly a new concept, maybe their antenna design is. Aside from that there are existing and working standards and prototypes. check http://www.rezence.com

"2.4 milliamps of steady current for about a day" that makes it about 60mAh. About the same as your average rechargeable lithium coin cell. And i'd somewhat prefer a battery that does not decompose inside my body because i'd like to actually use it for an extended period of time.
