FM radio? First thing I thought of when I saw this was how it would be nice for camping trips or other such locations where you don't have access to an outlet. But most of those places also don't get very good FM reception. How about an AM radio? And MP3 player? Then you could play all the music that YOU wanted...and listen to the baseball game at night.

And personally, for me, "note checker" was a bit confusing. Maybe it's an American thing but I was wondering how this device uses UV light to "check" your music? Note by note? With UV light?

Wow, the solar cell on that thing looks cruddy as heck. Probably made from some 80's tech that is out of patent or something (not that patents matter in China).
