Solio doesn't live up to the hype
I purchased three Solios at the Green Festival last year, planning to give two as gifts. But I found that the Solio I purchased does not gain enough charge to fully power my cell phone, even after a couple of days in a south facing window. So I decided to return the two unopened "gift" Solios, and was able to do that, after quite a bit of argument with the people at the office in Berkeley.
I would not recommend this product, but perhaps the newer model has solved the problems in the early version I got.

Latex foam gives the best rest!
If you want a great night's sleep, forget the newfangled blah-blah pedicel mattresses and go natural with latex foam. A natural rubber product, latex breathes and supports. Since the only U.S. factory burned down, latex is hard to find...but it is available through the European Sleep Works.
