that is sooo cool. maybe there is a easier-to-get-a-hand-on-version available in our local "mediamarkt".

i looked into these a lot when i was thinking of attaching my TomTom to my bike, and how i would power it after it' 2 +/- battery would die. They also make another version which is larger but fans out with 3 blades. More solar panels to suck in those rays and you can suction it to a car window etc.
the downside... most of the reviews i read said they were pretty sketchy and didn't work as wonderfully as advertised.

I love the idea, I love the design, I hug nature... I guess I'm about to buy the darn little toy!
Thank's for dropping it in here...
@Fenke: didn't find it at "mediamarkt" but "saturn" on Düsseldorf's Kö had it.
