Adventures in Green Electronics

I have just purchased this solar powered cover/book light/charger for my kindle 4.

It will probably arrive in 2 to 3 weeks so I will stop recharging my kindle now so it can be totally drained by the time the cover arrives.

At that time I will place the cover by my window to let it charge its internal battery from which it will charge my kindle.

The goal will be to have my kindle totally off the power grid with the minimum of effort.

I just think it would be amazingly cool if charging my kindle required nothing more than sitting it in my window sill.

Anyway I can't wait to see how well it works.
