BUY LCD TV, GPS, BLU-RAY, NETBOOK AND MORE - Kogan Technologies

I was in China in December last year, checking out some new technology from some of the big manufacturers. One of the most interesting things I saw was a solar panel bag.

It was basically a backpack that had some solar panels on the top. There was some cabling inside and several ports, so you would be able to plug in your iPod, different brands of mobile phones, and other media devices. I thought it was pretty cool but didn't think there'd be much desire for it.

Then I saw this article about a similar product designed for laptops. Pretty cool -- except for the hefty price tag of $650.

It kind of ties into the whole debate about whether green technology is just a fad. The good thing about this product is not only that it's environmentally friendly, but also convenient. I'm always running out of battery on my phone when I'm on the go, so I can imagine the benefits in this sort of a product.

If I did go through the process of producing this for Australian customers, it would definitely be cheaper than the laptop solar product...just wondering, would you be interested in buying something like this?
