I think it looks cool. If it’s not too bulky, and performs well, I think there is a great market for it. If it costs around 40-50 bucks or so, it’s a decent deal.

I’d buy one, but I’m usually around an outlet…

If it costs 49.99 British pounds, the equivalent in U.S. dollars would be about $89.62. Kinda pricey to me.

Thanks jinzo, I had no idea how much pounds converted to. I guess 90 bucks is a bit pricey. Looks cool though.

Nice website too…

i think atleast it would be better than aiming a propeller shape device at the sun to catch a few rays.

The one gadget that lacked until now. I can use my Ipod, Palm and Mobile phone all over Africa now. I’ll let you know if it’s satisfying , or just another unusefull gadget.

SOLIO…This is awesome technology, very cool!

Why would anyone NOT buy this over the other back up batteries?  It is rechargeable from the normal power socket and from the sun.  And it looks super cool!

I love the product but I live in Cleveland, the land of no sun.

  At least we have an Apple store. :/
