Kinesis Wind & Solar ChargerWe were going to make a crack about how the Kinesis Wind and Solar Charger both blows and sucks, but we actually rather like this nifty recharging gadget for mobile devices.

It uses a combination of solar cells and a small wind turbine to charge an internal 4000mAh battery, which then provides power from its USB port. It takes up to four hours to charge from sunshine and up to 24 from wind power. It’ll cost around $100 once Kinesis has struck a deal with a distributor.
