Possibly the coolest laptop bag...

Here she is people, a solar generator laptop bag with a padded area for your laptop, up to 17".

Granted, there is not enough power to charge your laptop, but it can charge small electronic devices like a cell phone or blackberry or an mp3 player.

Loving it!

It comes with a battery pack so you can store the energy, it's made out of recycled plastic, and has a place for headphones or a hydration system.

The cost at this website: www.verdantcomputing.com is $249, a little above my budget for laptop bags. But seeing as how it is actually useful beyond regular everyday usage, I don't think it's too bad if you are in the market for one.

Speaking of the Verdant Computing website, they are an excellent new resource I found that has tons of unique products for green nerds, like hard drives, peripherals, monitors and other parts. They are all made out of recyclable materials, are easy to recycle or are energy efficient.

They seem like the real deal. I can't really find any reviews, but I think they are relatively new.
