And ANOTHER Solar Charger  E-mail

We're starting to wonder when these things are going to stop being news. But the Boblbee solar iPod charger does have a couple of features that recommend it. Most importantly it is shock proof and water proof, which makes it a lot more convenient for use in the field. For those of us who like to work and play in outdoors, but also don't mind snuggling up to a recent episode of Heroes in the tent, this gadget becomes pretty attractive.

Also, because the charger has rounded panels, it can keep voltage relatively high throughout the day, no matter where the sun is in the sky...no tilting required.

Unfortunately, the device is only available in Japan, and I can't figure out how much they're charging for it.

Maybe the writer was on drugs or something.
