Get Outside, Do More Work

girl with laptop outdoorsToday Ecofriend tells us of a solar device allows you to recharge your laptop computer wherever you are (as long as there's sunlight). The device generates up to 12 volts of power and plugs into your laptop via USB cord.

The providers of this nifty gadget, Merry, Kawamura, Ganjavian, also offer a USB-powered water boiler, a purse that glows on the inside, and a set of eating utensils that fit on your fingertips. Also advertised is a trash bin divider--handy for keeping your recyclables sorted, but I wonder how long it will take folks to figure out that a sheet of cardboard would work just as well?

Has anyone tried any of these solar power options for laptops? What do you think?
