There's a Solar-Powered Laptop PC In You Future

This morning, I was discussing with a co-worker my desire to one day have a laptop PC that is powered by a lightweight solar panel no bigger than its lid, attached to the lid by a hinge so it could be flipped outward to point sunward.

At lunchtime, while getting my haircut, I read this Wired article, which doesn't talk about laptop-lid-sized solar panels, but does mention that "Several companies are using nanotechnology to develop solar cells the thickness of Saran Wrap that are even more efficient, easier to install on roofs, and cheaper to produce."

Cool.
