Solar Chargers, Anyone?

ForeverGeek reports that a company called QuickerTek has developed solar panels for the MacBook Air for charging while on the go. And then there are also solar-cell embedded handbags in which you can charge your mobile phone or iPod.
With energy costs surging up these days, I think it’s great to look into alternative sources. These are still expensive, though. At $1,000 a pop for the solar cells for the MacBook—that’s about half the cost of the notebook itself!
But when you’re in the middle of nowhere, without any other power sources, I bet having sunlight power your devices would sure be cool.
