Awesome Solar-Powered iPod Dock

gizmodo.com — If you thought Regen's Renu solar-powered iPod dock was unbelievable, get a load of its big brother, the Reverb. It's 3-feet tall and capable of cranking out 60 watts of power off of the sun's rays.

    If you give a toss about the environment, plant a tree. Buying a huge, tacky gadget to make a statement is ridiculous.
  • Ruefus, on 11/01/2009, -0/+7Not 'Awesome Solar-powered iPod Doc' - Stoo-peed, pointless and ridiculously overblown iPod Dock'
  • monodelasno, on 11/01/2009, -0/+6An awesome waste of space and money, the truth be told.
  • monodelasno, on 11/01/2009, -0/+5But if it was in the Apple Store, the fanboys would be swarming it.
  • bulls414, on 11/01/2009, -0/+3why would i keep my ipod out in the sun.
  • Floobins, on 11/01/2009, -0/+2Because all of those names are even more ridiculous.
  • fsumus, on 11/01/2009, -0/+2How about... Compuglobalhypermeganet?
  • JoannaLord, on 11/02/2009, -0/+1very nice.
  • Takuro, on 11/01/2009, -0/+1I'm still confused. How does it fit in your pocket?
  • zmigliozzi, on 11/01/2009, -0/+1Awesomely retarded and inefficient "it takes 20 hours of outdoor sun exposure (or 40 hours indoor) to reach a full charge" that almost seems worth the sticker price...
  • tsmallm, on 11/01/2009, -0/+1in what way is this thing awesome? wtf?
  • FireSlash, on 11/01/2009, -0/+1Global Solar also makes a similar product for under $100 that folds up and works for several devices. One of my co-workers uses it to charge his blackberry all the time.

  • Speedy7, on 11/01/2009, -1/+1Wait till you see what powers my PS3...

    Say hello to my !#@$ing huge friend
  • FTorres09, on 11/03/2009, -0/+0Hey guy, what's this big crap?
  • tribaal, on 11/01/2009, -1/+1I use this to power my (non apple) device: http://tinyurl.com/y8dumxq
    It works a treat, fits in my pocket and cost me around 40€

    Maybe I don't see the point of this precisely because I don't buy Apple products...
  • KevinRowz, on 11/01/2009, -2/+0Why are they using a stupid product name like Reverb when you could so obviously call a solar dock Sun Spot? Or Hot Plug? Or at least Raycharge?
