Early Morning Solar Gadget – Solar Nintendo DS Lite

Written by The Naib

From the makers of the solar powered Wii comes the Solar Nintendo DS Lite. Is there nothing the sun can’t power? (this is a retorical question, I understand the sun powers just about evething, except for nuclear reactors, and geothermal heat sources, but if you are clever you can make an argument that they too are depended upon the sun, as heaver elements must be formed in the belly of an exploding star, so no star no earth…I seem to have gotten off track, back to the meaningless gadget)

[...] The crazy kids at Toms Hardware who built the solar powered wii took a little flak from their readers for building a device that could not quite get by on solar power (which they could have fixed easily just by adding more panels) so they went back to the drawing board to develop a fully solar powered gaming device, just what everyone needs when the great outdoors gets boring.

I have an invention like that. I got a patent on it, but it is a different way of doing it!
