Default Wireless Charging on 4GS?

I just saw a video of wireless cell phone charging that is offered in the NX200t and NX300h series.
Has anyone found a way to incorporate any type of wireless charging in our 4GS?

Here's the link to the NX wireless charging video:

Thanks,

Jason

My sister has this charger on her NX, but she doesn't use it because her phone isn't compatible. I have read that it isn't that good since it charges fairly slow, heats up the phone, and some phones don't fit due to the size of the detent.

If you want wireless charging in your GS, just buy a charging pad, plug the USB cord into a cigarette light charger, and place charging pad on tray in center console.

That charges slowly also! I had to buy another adapter to plug into the cigarette outlet to charge my phone faster.

The cigarette outlet charges much faster than the USB ports in the center console. I think I read somewhere that the output of the USB ports are 0.5A.
