As much as I see a future in eco-effective design, this product has little if any merit. One has to think where will I use this product, sitting in a park chatting on my cell, ok I see that.

Aside from the lack of practability in this, it just doesn't provide enough power to make it worth pulling out a bright orange windmill from your bag, setting it up and then having to field questions on what in the hell you're doing. Not to mention that after about a week of carting this thing around it looks like it will most likely fall apart.
