Better late than never as it seems to have been worth the wait. Novothink has finally announced the long awaited (Promised to arrive November '09) Solar Surge charging cases for the iPhone/iPod are available. Surprisingly affordable I might add considering the nifty technology, running at $79.95 for the iPhone 3G/3GS version and $69.95 for the iPod touch (2nd gen only). So far the cases are only available in black and white, but additional colors will be arriving soon. The Solar Surge will add between four to eight hours of talk time, or up to 20 additional hours of audio playback when fully charged. Novothink stated that 30 to 60 minutes of talk time should be expected after just 30 minutes of exposure to direct sunlight. Quite the "Green" conversation starter in my opinion.  [Engadget]
