DMiax writes: Nokia's controversial CEO Elopjust revealed the prototype of the next WP7 handset. The CEO asked the journalists present to turn off the cameras because the new was "super confidential". Did he really expect them to comply?

Namely the device selects and traps other molecules based on their direction of motion. The existence of such a device would violate the second law of thermodnamics. It is worth noting that the researcher himself did not make such claim, simply crediting Maxwell for his work on electrodynamics and thermodynamics.
