Unfortunately the iphone 3G is considered inefficient when it comes to long battery life. The battery on this particular phone drains more quickly in a typical day of use than the battery on the original iPhone. To combat this power problem and to protect the phone from everyday scratches and knocks, the new solar powered case is launched. It is Compatible with all iPhones, including the new iPhone 3G. In direct sunlight, these chargers can provide functional power levels in less than 3 hours, or a full charge in 10.
Built with 1500 mAh battery this can provide one full charge for your iPhone and will recharge itself through the solar panel mounted to the front of the case, or via Mini USB if you’re in a badly lit area. These solar chargers come in both black and white in genuine leather casing.

That is a cool accessory for a hot new product. It is nice to see that the green guys are for once keeping up with the latest popular gadgets and offering quick eco-solutions... But I guess people are still not lining up for these cases as they did for the phone :)
The iphone 3G wasn’t doing well in the market, mostly because of the battery problem. To combat that, the makers came up with solar powered cases for the model! This launch certainly is a boon for the current phone users and for the other sector that loves the model but never purchased it because it wasn’t functional. The solar case resolves the core problem this particular model had and it can also be used with any iphone model. So these cases will surely catch on like the phone.
