Don’t you realized that this about one tenth of the capacity that your phone battery has? On their site Brando show a HTC Desire, that one has a 1400 mAh battery. So, if this “charger” is fully charged by the sunlight, you can expext to fill one tenth of your phone’s battery. And how long does it take to charge this “charger” with sunlight? A day? Longer?

I really hate this sort of crap, because it makes solar energy look bad.
