That would be awesome, I think and hope that we’ll see solar-powered cell phones one day.
Thank you all for stopping by!

This is awesome. I just love when designers finally integrate really useful features in the standard stuff we’ve been using all along.

I got one of those from Solar Arcadia and is totally dead after the first charge. I’m trying to contact them with no success.
If you google it you will find other comments about the same issue.

This iPhone solar charging case is great. It seems many companies are starting to implement more solar technology into everyday objects. I’ve even seen solar powered backpacks that will charge your iPhone or iPod and I even saw solar rechargable batteries on amazon.com

The iphone is still pretty steep in price I can see, but I found a nice
site that offers free iphone to select places in the US.

also a lot of other electronics like Macbooks and ipods which are
being given in out some states.

We sell a number of solar chargers that work with all kind of devices. And also devices that can hold a charge used as failovers. Solar Gadget Store

that’s cool. You could actually hook up a phone to battery and carry it with you. That so cool. And it could be hooked up to any device.

Too bad the solar panel on it is so tiny, it would take hours and hours to fully recharge if you left it in direct sunlight. The .61W output power they advertise is assuming the solar panel is directly facing the sun and IN OUTER SPACE! The actual power output anywhere here on earth is going to be much less, more like .25W. This tiny solar panel would provide a small trickle charge, nothing else. It’s more of a fashion accessory for “green” people than an actually useful device.

This will surely be a big hit with the eco-geeks – is it actually worth the effort though?

sounded like a good idea but not going to spend that money for a “green” fashion accessory. i’m sticking with my new backflip iphone case. it has a useful kickstand and is a protective soft case. it’s just under $30: http://www.backflipcase.com
