Hmmm, that could be really handy. However the amazing UK whether means it will only work for 3 weeks of the entire year!

It says it will still work when it's cloudy, just not as efficiently.

Not bad, I'm having a bit of trouble keeping enough charge in it. I think the best thing is to fully charge with the mains charger first and try and keep it up topped up as much as possible and also try to keep it in the sun whilst charging other things from it.
I've discovered that it will also charge if you put it under a bright desklamp, but that kind of defeats the point of it really, unless you happen to be using the lamp anyway.
I've got all the extra adapters I need now, so as well as my ipod, I can now charge my phone, my pda, my bluetooth headphones and almost anything else that uses a car adapter. You can't charge a laptop from though apparently.
