Solar Powered Netbook

May 18th, 2009

Netbooks are good to have around, aren’t they? And solar-power, that would save us a lot of energy if we used it on more of our mobile devices, wouldn’t it? Okay, enough of the rhetorical question lead-ins, what am I getting at?

A solar-powered netbook, of course. A European technology company known as iUnika has perfected one, and this product, also known as the GYY, is certainly nice enough to be the first solar powered netbook.

Actually, I don’t know if the GYY is the first solar-powered netbook, but it is certainly energy efficient enough, not to mention light. Please chime in with a comment if you know for sure that the GYY is the first, and feel free to check out the specs after the jump.

With something new like this, you can’t expect too much memory. The user will find about 128MB of RAM, plus a 64GB SSD drive. The CPU is 400MHz, and the operating system is some “proprietary version of Linux”. The screen is a 8-inch WVGA with an 800 x 480 resolution.

The iUnika GYY will be available in the European market in June for about 160 euros. Assuming it will come to the United States, that price would probably translate to about $200.

    In essence, the content we post should always take precedence and will remain to do so on It’s Nice That. However, it has become clear that allowing the facility to let or readers throw in their two cents every`week can only be healthy – especially if there is a genuine sincerity and rationale behind what is written. The real question remains though, will Twitter continue to reveal itself as the best solution to our comment facility? Only time will tell.

    it has been covered so many times before. Not including a referral in a comment like that could be the writer’s way to help its audience do some conscious thinking, not obvious knowing.

    It’s such a sunny day that I feel very satisfied with all the things around me. For a long time I’ve been in home due to the bad weather, and all the things I can do are just watching TV, playing some kind of games, reviewing what I’ve learned in class and preparing for the papers.
