I so HATE proprietary charging devices and adore all things USB. I hate disposable batteries even more...what a money sink and landfill-filler. I think I'm going to have to pick up a couple of sets of these things for my bluetooth mouse and helmet lights

Hmmm...maybe a valid xmas gift?

I've had the itch to invest in renewable energy companies recently and have been reading a lot about alternative solar power lately. Like the Sunflower and the Stirling Energy Dish. Odysen Renewable Energy Portal is a great resource that tracks all sorts of information including stocks of companies involved in renewable energy. Put your money where your mouth is an invest in the future of energy (I know I will be).
