Solar Backpack









First, some advice: NEVER climb a tree to escape from a grizzly. They can climb too. So you'll only find yourself fighting a grizzly, in a tree. Now, concentrate please: yes, it looks like an ordinary backpack. But it has a monocyrstalline solar panel on the front. This absorbs the sun's energy, transferring it into an electrical charge which is stored in a power pack, hidden inside. Attach your hand-held appliance (mobile, digital camera, or MP3 player) to the charger and voila: full power whilst you're on the move.
Of course, the Solar Backpack is also extremely comfortable to carry, with ultra soft padded back and a number of buckles that can be fastened to make it easier to on your shoulders. Better still, the Solar Backpack has a number of compartments for your belongings - look here: a divider which you can use to secure folders or a laptop. Plus, a compartment with a Velcro-sealed pouch for loose change and a concealed zipped pouch to store a wallet, phone, or iPod. Turn it over and there's a small pocket containing a rain cover - ideal for protecting the whole bag from wet conditions. Or bat droppings.

The World's Weirdest Keyboards

Keyboards without keys, a vertical keyboard with mirrors on the side so you can see your fingers, and keyboards on which you type on the back: Get ready for some wacky input devices.

Bluetooth Virtual Keyboard
Manufacturer: i.Tech Dynamic
Why carry a keyboard around with you when you could instead activate this cool virtual keyboard? Well, maybe because jamming your fingers into a solid tabletop trying to press keys that aren’t really there doesn’t feel so great after awhile. Or because the $150
Bluetooth Virtual Keyboard tends to be visible primarily in shady areas (or at night). But don't let these little shortcomings cause you to lose sight of two crucial considerations: It’s virtual, and it sports a totally awesome red laser.
