Whether you are a mobile techie or a geek, battery life of your gadget is one of the most important things you need to prioritize. Imagine a dead/low battery handheld device even with powerful specs and features can do nothing and that’s for sure. So there are some portable rechargers being sold in the market, some are cheap some are quite high in terms of their monetary value.

That is also the reason why solar gadgets and devices are invented. Yesterday, I’ve seen this Samsung NC215S solar-powered netbook which is really cool. It has a 10.1-inch matte display with a resolution of 1024×600 pixels, a 1GB of ram, and a 1.66 GHz Intel Atom N570 dual-core processor. The good thing with the Samsung NC215S netbook is that it can lasts up to 14 hours under ideal conditions because of its solar panel. It will be available in the US from July 3 with a SRP of $399.
