A turbine that makes water from the desert air

Access to clean drinking water remains a surprisingly big problem even today. Today, you probably paid more for your bottle of water than you did for your gasoline (do the math)[1].<p>The part I like about this technology is that it uses moisture in the air and can be instaleled anywhere, with no further infrastructure needed (wells, etc).<p>Unfortunately, as others already pointed out in the comments at the main article is that RO - reverse osmosis applied to contaminated ground water is way more cost effective and accessible.<p>[1] <a href="http://www.amazon.com/TalkingRain-Spring-Water-16-9-Ounce-Bottles/dp/B003OZYUEA/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&#38;qid=1333489425&#38;sr=8-3" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/TalkingRain-Spring-Water-16-9-Ounce-Bo...</a>

In light of this and other inventions, all the talk about oil peak and the war over water is moot. I'm convinced there will be technology - even in the near future - that will solve problems like water or energy shortage.

This makes me want to go and read Dune again.
