Eco Factor: Renewable energy bicycle charger for cellphones.
To counter the perils of diminishing energy, several gadget manufactures are working on next-gen devices that will be charged by renewable energy. While Apple has a patent filed for a solar-powered iPhone, Nokia has launched a bicycle charger for its cellphones.
Priced at $19, the charger kit includes a dynamo and a phone holder along with a 2mm charging jack. The charger has been aimed for rural areas around the world where bicycles are the primary means of travel.
