I saw this link today on the net. A little product for the Japanese market that uses solar power to charge a battery (in 2 days of good sun) that can then be used to charge your iPod. About $175-200. Pretty cool though. It's certainly not the most cost efficient way to go about it, but it's an interesting solution to perhaps generating electricity in remote locations, like on a camping trip. I wonder if it could be adapted for other uses? Bird Electron Solar iPod Charger
