Does the following image look familiar to you?
If not, it's ok. But you'll want to find out more. This is a Solio charger. It's about the size of an average cell phone and it fans out, resembling a windmill. The best part...it's a portable mobile device SOLAR powered charger! Along each "fan blade" are solar panels that collect the sun's rays and convert it into energy. The energy is then stored in the charger so you can charge you mobile device later, even at night.
I believe that this charger is a great asset for e-Learning. While I haven't seen a version of Solio that boasts enough energy to charge a laptop, it's got more than enough power for cell phones, PDA's, iPods, video games and GPS systems. You can even get adapters that will charge rechargeable batteries. And we all know that e-Learning is no longer restricted to computers. Learners can listen to podcasts on their iPods and MP3 players, as well as pull up videos and files on their PDA's.
Now you can stay out of the office even longer and still get your work, training and schoolwork done! Score one for e-Learning. "It's free and it's green"...not the device, but the energy. I can't wait to get one of these for myself (the 3 models range from $80-$200). Check out their site. http://www.solio.com/charger/
