Solio Universal Solar Charger

Mon May 8, 2006 - 2:52 PM EDT - By James Hromadka

Conclusion

The Solio Charger is not for everybody, especially if you live in an area that doesn't get a lot of sunshine. It can be handy for long trips in the outdoors when you have multiple devices that you want to charge. Since it charges the Treo using sunlight, there's no electric bill to pay or batteries to use, so its high cost can be reclaimed over time.

If you only plan on charging the Treo, don't care about the environment, and don't want to spend a lot of money, something like the Seidio Emergency Charger might be better for you.
