Solar eReader Prototype   no comments

Electronics Weekly is reporting that Sharp, together with their distributer Arrow, have put together a prototype solar powered ereader built with off-the-shelf parts. 

The device has a rechargeable battery to save up excess solar power and is capable of powering the ereader for almost 19 hours without additional power input from the solar cell.

At the moment this is just a proof of concept;  but I can imagine that Worldreader would love to have solar-powered Kindles to use for their project.
