I really like solar backpacks like the Voltaic and Eclipse, but sometimes—especially sunny, sweaty days—an over-the-shoulder bag is a better choice. Eclipse already has a model, and now it looks like Solar Style is planning to offer a 2.6 Watt bag of their own for $50. It won’t charge your laptop, of course (you probably can’t even fit your laptop inside), but it will keep your cellphone or MP3 player topped off, more than likely. As Treehugger points out, it doesn’t have a built-in battery (only the Voltaic does, to my knowledge), but that’ll save you a little weight, if you don’t need it.
