It would still carry a charge, I assume... probably will lose a bit, but it would still work.
@ DeathC200, do you know what a capacitor is? Because it isn't a battery. It works similarly to a battery but it isn't a interchangeable source of power. It basically collects charges, filters them, then regulates what is needed.
The point of this article is saying that plastic super-capacitors won't replace batteries but it will totally make them obsolete and redundant. (Meaning you wont be replacing batteries with plastic slabs that hold a charge, you will just have gadgets that work on their own without the need to swap out power sources.)
