| Slightly smaller and 50% more power. That sounds good to me. It still only 450mW though, so you'd need a fair bit of solar cell to charge/power things. For a mobile phone, it'd probably need 7.7" by 8" to charge it at the same rate as a wall charger. For the laptop I'm working on, it would be about 28.5" by 24" to power and charge it.

| 450mW would at least help to extend the time in between having to charge from a main power source. Handy if you have a phone that eats power fast.
